Im sure thats jsut a standard CT9...with a HKS actuator on it??

or im probably wrong...LOL.

dont look it to me might be rong tho......

 

[Iain@CRD]

this turbo coupled with the manifold & decat (found in my other auctions) produced 242bhp @ just 1.1 bar of boost!!!

Aye right ... :haha:

thats what i though that it looked like a normal ct9 but i was unsure seemed too good to be true

 

[akis]

if this made 242 ps,... i am astronaut

 

[bucketep91]

they have taken down the first pic now, only the pic of the actuator works.

i personaly would steer clear unless its a member on here and they can confirm it is a hybrid.
then again if he says it made that power lol

It could possibly be one of the earlier tongs ct9/ct20 hybrids. Those units were also efi inlet pipe compatible, not like the bored out inlets common on hybrids today. The only way to tell it wasn't a ct9 is to measure the diameter of the inlet (the ct20 hybrid would be slightly larger) and compare the compressor wheels on the two units. As for 242bhp at 1.1bar...........

The turbo pictured has a CT9 comp housing which has not been bored internally as the inlet trumpet is still of standard thickness and has not had a larger trumpet welded on.

The comp wheel although not conclusive I would say I am 99% sure that it is a standard wheel.

As for the 242 bhp at 1.1 bar thats absolute and complete bollox.

that mans feedback rating is 96% which isnt great to start with, also 242bhp is aloud of crap so doesnt really sound all that credible to me, i would just get one from a trader/forum member and atleast you know its a real hybrid and works lol, there must be a reason for it being so cheap :S rings alarm bells for me imo...up to you though

Please remember the original Kitaro ct9/ct20 hybrid. Physically there was not much difference between a stock unit's housing and the ct9/ct20 unit, hence why the stock efi pipe could be fitted onto on of those hybrids back then. All I'm saying is you actually have to do a side by side comparison with a stock unit to spot the differences.
