HKS 700 E Turbo

Postby ZULU1 » Sun Aug 27, 2006 6:18 pm

Does anyone know how or who to contact with respect to adding the turbo conversion ? It is listed on the following website and rated at 78 hp.

I dont believe that it would take much effort as its such a simple engine and would sort out the Gauteng altitude power depleting problem and be quieter and lighter on fuel.

Contact the Savannah guys - It is on their manufacturers website. Maybe they can find out for you.

Picture of HKS Turbo

Postby ZULU1 » Tue Oct 17, 2006 9:30 am

After discussing with Robert Gassmann yesterday here is a pic of a half complete HKS 700e turbo, I have had several PMs advising that the factory are producing a unit. Apparently 92 hp ?? but for Gauteng this would be good. HKS are a large turbo manufacturer so they should be able to do it.

My motor has now 150 hrs and is using solo 6 litres an hour, dual 9-10 ltrs per hour, not missed a beat.
