thedozzman Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 I'm looking for any information about the old HKS Twincharger kit for the 4A-GZE, seen pictures, seen many 300+hp cars with the kit, but there is little information on where to find one of these kits, or how to fit it. Can anyone help??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trev Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 A few links: http://www.toyotanation.com/forum/archive/topic/6950-1.html http://www.imoc.co.uk/forums/garage.php?mo...=16&MID=111 http://www.hksusa.com/FAQ/?id=1594&rsku=0 I have links with pics that feature butterfly valves but i have to go through the rest of my favourites to find them, Will post up when i do.

Emerson Posted April 24, 2007 Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 I havent got any information but i'm just curious to find how well the kit works as it sounds like a great alternative to the usual single turbo or supercharging and would be a great way to stand out of the crowd. (a hard thing to do these days.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trev Posted April 24, 2007 Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 The twincharge kit was just a turbo add-on for the GZE so all you have to do is buy the turbo and do the plumbing, I still have not found the site i have as yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raven Posted April 24, 2007 Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 What you do is set it up so when the motor reaches a certain RPM, it triggers the clutch to switch off on the supercharger and a butterfly to redirect the inlet charge away from the supercharger and into a turbo only circuit. Something to that effect anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corolla_Kid Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 In the latest REDLINE mag (pommy version of HPI) there is an s15 with a twincharge setup but the supercharger runs all the time with the turbo just boosting into it. Seems to work alright. Maybe an option to consider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Des Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 I heard somewhere that the sc12 and sc14's don't like being boosted but i could be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AE25 Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 (edited) HKS no longer produce or plan to reproduce the 4agze twincharger kit. your best chance is to find a second hand system or build your own. http://www.hksusa.com/FAQ/?id=1594&rsku=0 i've been doing a bit of research into twincharging. seriously keen to build a 20v twincharger myself. wrote a big long reply but was a bit off topic so started a new thread. Fensport have bought an hks twincharged front cut and installed it in their project ae92 and are now modifying it they have a diagram of it too (below) some use information in their writeup. http://gama.main-hosting.com/~logabyte/twincharge1.html Edited May 17, 2007 by AE25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
