Sorry, I don't know. Only one guy really knows and that is the owner of Vitesse. His name is John. You could call and ask him but he's never given out the specs to anyone in the past.

Tempting, oh my. I think you said that this is a direct bolt-on turbo, no fabricating of the oil/coolant lines, correct?

Correct, it fits in place of the factory turbo with no issues. I have the same turbo on my 951 and trust me, its a great addition.

Thanks, I have spoken to a couple of ppl offline from this forum and they say it's a nice setup.

I just need to convince myself now to spend $$$

Pretty sure you still need to mod the water pipe if you're coming from a factory turbo.

Yes, I had to heat the water pipe and give it a slight bend to clear the intake.

When does the turbo spool, how much HP can it support? How do you have a turbo on your car and not know about it?

From having examined one up close, I'm pretty confident that the stage 2 (at least the one I looked at) is just a 50 trim TO4E compressor mated to a turbonetics KKK reproduction #8 hotside, and a garrett stage 3 turbine wheel. I'm sure john also massaged it somehow, though I doubt he'll tell you what exactly. Expect spoolup similar to a stock k26/6, should make ~320 whp at 18 psi.

$1000 shipped (it has less than 2000 miles since a complete rebuild).

Full boost at 3700. I was getting 323 rwhp at 18# of boost.
John and Vitesse have been on Rennlist for YEARS. Anyone who spends much time on here knows him and his products. He had/has the best bolt on products for the 951(There may be some debate about his MAF kit vs M-Tune but they are really, really close from my experience riding and driving cars with both). I don't know the exact specs because I know that Vitesse sells a great product. I rode in a car with a Vitesse MAF and stage 2 turbo. It broke loose at the bottom of second gear, hooked up for a few hundred RPM and then broke loose again when full boost hit. Any turbo that will spin the tires almost all the way through second gear is good enough for me.

Have you let John (at Vitesse) know this is up for sale? Last time I talked to him, he had a list of people wanting the stage 2's since they became unavailable. GLWS

PS - I thought these things spooled quicker than 3700 rpm?

It's not a 50 trim. It's a bit bigger than that.
