I know Cquestad runs just the A5k by itself. ck with him. Did they tell you what the specs are on it, i.e. exh housing, compressor specs?

The A5K will run like crazzzzy with the mods you have listed W1cked.

It is tough as nails and a rocket from 10 psi till 50-60 psi.

Well just got home and will start wrenching now to get the turbo in and the head studs before the night is over. Will come back and post and give an update.
Cquestad sounds like this turbo is a winner.

Guys this turbo is insane. I got up on it and it tore up my 35's like if they were little stock tires. I only got to drive around for about 10 minutes and it started raining.
Hopefully i can really get up on it tomorrow.
Will let you guys know how it runs.

The Aurora 5000 is one bad animal!!!
Its the baddest bolt on single charger to be had.
Check out video #1 in my signature to see one in action.



I think the A5K is probably the most under rated charger out there. Sort of like a best kept secret!

no, that turbo can be run as a single. ATS uses the 5000 for the bottom turbo in their twin setup.
