Default TN GTK turbo question

Did have a question that I was gonna ask but my thread got closed for whatever reason. How many people on the site have a GTK turbo on the TN setup. I know Taurran has one. Just wondering was their anyone else. Also I already know about the bottle neck issue and everything else. Just was curious.

^^^Went through his entire thread. Got all the information I needed. Besides his setup is way different. His is a GTK850 hybrid. Mine is just a regular GTK650. I was just wondering were their any other people that had a GTK on the TN. But like yall said, he's the only one. Thanks for the quick response fellas.

There was another guy that tried a gtk650 on his turbo setup but I don't think his shop was really putting the effort into making it work. They seemed more interested in bolting it down and then trying to sell him a tt kit.

That being said, I still think the main issue is with the hotside piping and wastegate configuration on the kit. My car is back at Performance Factory right now and we're making a number of changes and hopefully I'll have a nice update soon.

Oh, and to get the gtk 650 to work you will need a T4 flange on the up pipe and a 3" v-band flange with a reducer for the downpipe, or a custom 3" downpipe.
