Anyone know the power potential of a knightsports turbo?

Is it a hybrid? Pull the compressor cover off and measure the wheel, and then ask with that information.

Which Knightsports turbo?

They have everything from a kit to upgrade the compressor wheel to a complete modified S5 based hyrid turbo with external wastegate.

So, 250-400 RWHP is possible on pump gas.

The power will vary MORE depending on what every other piece on and relating to the engine is than which hybrid stock turbo is on it.

I don't know what the specs are, all I know is that the turbo is brand new coming off a s5, maybe a rebuilt. Also will i need anything additional for this to work on my s4, is it a direct bolt on?

pull the compressor cover off, it takes 5 min. You'll need a S5 turbo manifold to make it work on a S4, and maybe some of the oil/water lines.

If I can't find a s5 manifold will a aftermarket manifold do the job

Our turbos use a proprietary flange, so if you get a aftermarket manifold (unless it is designed SPECIFICALLY for the stock turbo) you are are going to need to have an adapter plate made. and welded to the mani.
