Kamak turbo kit
 

Hey everyone,

Just to make you all aware, there is now a Turbo kit offering from Kamak (Kinugawa being the sister company setup specifically for the Asian market):

I was wondering if any of the international guys are running this kit yet?

Thanks all.

It looks like another version of the Zage/GReddy/SBD/Hexon design, the manifold design and heat shield point me in that direction.

I'm also in South Africa and looking at bringing in some form of turbo kit for a customer, PM me if you want.

It actually looks nothing like the GReddy or GReddy rip offs at all. The GReddys have flex pipes on the header, don't use V-Bands on the downpipe, and the charge pipes are run completely different to an intercooler that has top mounted inlet/outlets.

Interesting looking kit though, although I have no idea what a R is for currency.

Rouples; its an indian country.

Fun fact I'm fairly certain its also the currency in alot of Zelda games as well...

Thanks bud, Phoenix Performance is the local distributor. Will PM you though.


R is South African Rands. Check the ebay link, its only about $3200. *edit: actually about $5000*

You right, on closer inspection all the things you point out make sense.

On a side note, the description states V-mount intercooler and the piping angles do look different to most of the other kits. Would be nice to see a more detailed shot of the cooler from the front.

That's 3100 pounds, which is about $5000 US. The kit looks like it comes with a front pipe and over pipe which makes 5k somewhat reasonable if the quality is there.

Id hope for more turbo than a 20G TD05 for 5k :(

Apologies, you are correct, didn't read properly...its pounds.

They have one long thread on NASIOC with quite a few people trying their turbos. They definitely don't perform as well as the turbos they have been copied from, but they are decent and of course much cheaper.

I wonder if those were perhaps the first ones they made or just bad luck because I see a lot of threads popping up about them on various forums with great results...

If you're dropping 5 grand on a turbo kit, why not just get a brand that's already trusted?

I am simply curious if anyone is running this kit yet.
