This product is good quality and i would highly recomend this turbo

Initial review of Kinugawa T4 Turbo for 04-05 Mazdaspeed MX-5

The stock iHi turbo in my 04 Mazdaspeed MX-5 unfortunately developed an oil leak and had to be replaced. I went with the Kinugawa turbo because of the fact that it doesnt require me to swap out the exhaust manifold & the Flying Miata downpipe /exhaust. The supplied Kinugawa hardware didnt fit. Had to fabricate & improvise. The Kinugawa turbo sits further back than the stock iHi turbo causing some fitment issues with the exhaust downpipe & cat. Beyond that, the installation was fine. The tune shop who did the installation was able to dyno tune my Mazdaspeed MX-5 to 230HP w/ 230TRQ which is perfect for a daily Miata w/ stock engine internals.

Its only been installed for about 50 miles and so far so good. Im hopeful that it will last. We shall see *fingers crossed*

Cast 6+6 / 9 Blades STS / 4cm
My New Turbo!

Bought as a replacement for the turbo on my Mitsubishi Delica Spacegear. Extremely good communication and advice given before the actual purchase. Delivery was fast. The turbo itself looks well made and was an easy replacement for the original one, although the supplied, replacement coolant lines were both too long and I had to use the originals. Also, the turbo drain tube was different to the original and a new connecting hose had to be fitted to use the one supplied with the turbo. It performs well and I am overall, very happy with it!

Civic fC3 Si 1.5t

I got this for my 1.5t civic si a couple years back. Great quality and sounds good. I'm a satisfied returning customer. I rebuilt my Evo 9 turbo with your 9 blade turbine, 11+0 compressor wheel and 20g housing.

Turbo for a st205 celica

Turbo runs great with no problems but the tubing kit is kinda useless in the st205 celica idk about MR2 compatibility I just used the OEM oil drain and cooling tubes

Really good turbo

Been running this for the past 4 years and works like a charm.

Great

No complaints . Response and power has been amazing. I've had the turbo on for about 10k miles with no issues. Honestly wish I went with a bigger turbo but doesn't not downplay the quality.

Good turbo for the money

Turbo seems to hold up well after warranty repair, had some issues with hardware and having them send the right fittings, other than that turbo seems of good quality and performs good, so far no issues after 10k miles of daily driving

Very good i got for 2003 saab 9-3 arc no codes works great sounds even better

Very good company, great turbo any technical issue they respond instantly with any advice you need, they sent me a banjo bolt kit right away free of charge because of the fitting having a manufacture issue. very impressed overall would definetly recommend them to anyone looking for a aftermarket turbo thanks kinugawa. 😀

Great sounds great product!

Purchased this product with a bit of skepticism but have come to really like the product. I did however have to put a Lil bit of thin oil to help with sticking. Would buy again especially for the price.

Billet 6+6 / 9 Blades STS
All perfect!

Top turbo😍

Factory BCV / 20T Billet 11+0 / 10 Blades STS 55
Good Quality

High quality and finish. Some of the bolts were not tight, but other than that, fully reccomend these turbos. Cheers!

TD04-15T review

These turbos were drop-in and worked amazingly.
Having said that, a few notes for future buyers.
1. If you want to use you OEM oil/coolant feed lines, youll have to change the position of the blocking
bolts
2. The supplied setup for the oil retune line for the front turbo doesn’t work unless you want to grind your front’s engine mount. I suggest either ysing the stock return or buying the after market lines from 3sx

Besides that these turbos are great. I love them and you can def feel the performance upgrade.

Good but laggy

Turbo doesnt hit full boost, 1bar, till close to redline. My ebc is set to 0% keeping boost down at 14-15psi, spring pressure. Shouldve asked for a lower spring.

Awesome came super quick and ive been running ot for a little while now and its been perfect would definetly recommend to other people

Awesome service

Awesome service,product and fast shipping,these guys rock

Great product and a great staff at kinugawa turbo

Very good replacement

Bought it as a oe like replacement for my 1999 S70 T5. So no fancy blades or huge wastegate upgrade. The housing is exactly like the original turbo. When using the original coolant lines, I had to use the lower hole on the side of the turbo because the pipe would it the plug (original do not have a plug). So maybe consider installing custom lines for a better fitment. Since the wastegate actuator is different, in my case 0.8 bar because I did not want to stray too far away from stock, I have to tune the car. It looks very nice too.

Drop-In / Billet 6+6 / 11 Blades STD
Great turbos, line kit needs work.

I purchased the standard 11 blades and the turbos are fantastic my car is basically stock with full bolt on, my issue is the supplied line kits are another story. Both of the oil drain lines will NOT fit, the front turbo there is no room due to the motor mount and the rear was significantly shorter than the stock drain tubes. Coolant lines are a bit long, I didn’t even mess with the oil feeds, I used the supplied coolant lines and reused the stock oil lines. It would also be nice to have a bit more instruction for those purchasing some turbos for just a factory direct replacement since these great for it without a doubt.

Thanks for your review.
