Turbos for Sport Compacts
HKS
HKS began in October 1973 when two talented young engineers decided to design and build high-
performance engines and components that major OEMs could not, or would not, produce.

If you ever wondered why the company is called HKS, here’s the story. Hiroyuki Hasegawa, a former
engineer for Yamaha Motor Company, and his partner Mr. Kitagawa, secured a capital infusion
from Sigma Automotive Co., Ltd. They started the company tuning gasoline-powered engines in a
dairy-farming shed at the foot of Mount Fuji in Japan. Mr. Hasegawa worked for about a year on an
aftermarket turbocharger for passenger cars. It found a market, and the rest is history.
HKS pioneered the Japanese aftermarket performance industry by delivering a host of exciting new
products, including the first commercially available electronic turbo timer and boost controller. Other
early products included piggy-back fuel computers and sophisticated fuel management tools.
Clearly HKS was driving performance trends for Japanese vehicles.

For over a quarter century, HKS products have been put to the test in drag racing, road racing,
rallying, and top speed trials. HKS-equipped vehicles have captured numerous racing
championships and hold claim to a myriad of competition records, using many off-the-shelf, race-
proven HKS components. As a result, “HKS” has been synonymous with “performance” in the
automotive aftermarket industry for the past 29+ years.
HKS full turbo kit
HKS GT Full Turbo Kits consist of
properly sized HKS GT Ball-Bearing
Turbocharger unit(s) that offer power
and response, as well as all the
appropriate related hardware. This
Supra TT kit uses GT2835 turbos,
stainless-steel manifolds, external
wastegates, and flanged downpipes.
HKS intercooler pipe
HKS intercooler pipe upgrade kits
increase efficiency and performance
over the factory intercooler pipe
system. The use of metal intercooler
piping offers increased durability,
consistently higher boost pressure,
improved response, and an attractive
appearance.
HKS USA, Inc. was established in 1982, in order to deliver performance, customer service, and
quality products to consumers in North America. HKS recently purchased a new 35,000+ sq. ft.
headquarters building for North American sales, marketing, warehouse, R&D, and manufacturing
operations. The company also has a 100,000 sq. ft., state-of-the-art manufacturing and R&D facility
at the foot of Mount Fuji.

Every HKS turbo, turbo kit, and other turbo-related component is race proven and engineered with
the highest standards in performance, function, and reliability.
HKS sport turbo upgrade kit
HKS Sport Turbo Upgrades are bolt-on turbo
upgrade kits for factory turbocharged vehicles.
These kits consist of new, larger turbos designed to
bolt directly on to the stock manifold(s). HKS Sport
Turbos are designed and sized to promote good
mid-range response and provide maximum airflow
throughout the RPM band. Each turbo kit is crafted
to provide higher-than-stock levels of performance
and quality.
HKS GT ball bearing sport turbo
HKS GT Ball-Bearing
Sport Turbo Upgrades
step up to the
higher-end HKS GT
Ball-Bearing turbos.
HKS intercooler core
HKS intercooler cores are available in
various sizes and thicknesses for
various custom applications. From the
HKS Core #1 to the new S-Type Core,
these are the same high-quality units
used in the complete HKS intercooler
kits. An array of intercooler end tanks
is also available to tailor the intercooler
to specific needs.
HKS intercooler kit
HKS intercooler kits are
application-specific upgrade kits for
factory intercooled turbocharged
vehicles. Intercooler size and
placement are calculated for maximum
efficiency and performance.
HKS full turbo kit
HKS Full Turbo Kits consist of large
HKS turbos, manifolds, external
wastegates, and flanged downpipes.
They offer phenomenal top-end
horsepower and good response.

Sport Compact Turbos and Blowers Sport Compact Turbos & Blowers
by Joe Pettitt
Lightweight and high-revving, sport compacts are today’s most
popular cars. They have developed a cult following among today’s
youth and are fueling a multi-million dollar industry in modification
parts and equipment.

While most owners of sport compacts can afford the simple bolt-
ons available, some owners want to take their modifications a step
further. There is intense competition to be the fastest, and quite
often the only way to win is to go to the next level – by installing a
supercharger/blower or turbocharger on your engine.

This book is an enthusiast’s guide to understanding and using
turbochargers and superchargers on sport compact cars. It
covers the basics of each system and compares their pros and
cons. Building and tuning small-displacement 4- and 6-cylinder
engines to maximize performance and reliability with forced
induction is also covered.
