Volvo T5 KKK turbocharger

ivor · Apr 17th, 2013, 15:11

I am looking for a KKK K24 turbocharger housing for the exhaust side.
Mine is cracked around the wastegate valve.

This is a very common fault with these housings.

I`ve got one from a car that had 48k miles on the clock and it was cracked and It had NO effect on the operation of the turbo.

Personally I would continue to use the housing.

My kkk housing is cracked so bad that I can hear it whistle at anything above 0.5bar. It has no affect what so ever on the power and still holds 1.5bar under load

Hi
Thanks so much for your info.
Re. Performance the KKK is a very good turbo but it seems that the reliabillty vs. the mitsu turbos is not something to write home about.
Again thanks for shareing your experience.
Cheers
Michael
