IMO the only HKS turbo worth the extra coin is the GT3037...it's a nasty beast. You can find comparable "other" turbo's to the rest of the HKS line for less money IMO.

Give www.agpturbo.com a call. They can build or get anything you want. Dont buy an HKS turbo. Your paying for a name. A Garrett is a Garrett, no matter where it comes from.

Welllll yes and no. HKS DOES have specific wheels and housings made to their spec. Not all the models but some of them are HKS only.

I agree though...aside from the GT3037, I wouldn't pay for them.

Anyone have spec on the HKS 3037. I know it's a favorite among the Lancer guys in Japan. Thanks!-MIKE

i think the 3037 uses the same compressor wheel as the l2R & the FP3055.

well the l2r and fp3055 are hks 3037 turbo's. just differrent turbine housing.

also that is 2170 retail/list. you can probally it them for 1500 at a good shop.

peterm what other mods do you have, and what are your goals? chances are that a smaller turbo will easily meet your goals. These new ball bearing turbos are glitzy and will make you popular. you may find that a conventional bearing turbo will make you and your wallet much more happy. 2K for a turbo is nuts man, give that idea a little more thought.
