Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a direct bolt-on for my 1KD Hilux/Prado?
Yes — the FLEX Pro VNT 44 mm is a true drop-in unit that retains the factory manifold, dump, intercooler piping and OEM oil/coolant lines.
Do I need to buy a new actuator?
Not required — you can reuse your OEM actuator. If you prefer new, we stock dedicated Hilux and Prado actuators (links above).
How much boost can it safely run?
With proper supporting mods and quality tuning, it supports roughly 30–35 psi. Always set targets with your tuner based on fuel-system health and IAT/EGT monitoring.
What power can I expect?
Build-dependent, but many combinations achieve about 240–280+ rwhp with +30%/+50% injectors, FMIC, airbox and a quality 3″ exhaust plus an ECU remap.
What gaskets are included?
Two turbo gaskets plus oil and coolant feed/return gaskets are supplied. Studs/nuts are not included (reuse or add our hardware kit).
