More Dumb Turbo Questions
80 model 7 12-a very heavy street port, Turbo, ported turbo manifolds 600cfm carb (its the only carb i have at this time)
this car has an old bea or bae turbo setup on it. with the old engine i had around 15-18 Lbs of boost and fullpower to 10k with the new ported engine its losing power around 8500 rpm and only have a max of 10-12 Lbs it actually seemed to have more power with the old engine:scratch: so what turbo flows really good around 10-11k on a ported 12-a without going totally overboard also if anyone has any information on the bea-bae turbo kit please feel free to pass it on this was not a bonnet style setup :dunno: yes i know the turbo is starting to go!! |
Please tell me your mods... I hope you are not spinning 10k+ with stock internals...
|
Also, turbo choice on those RPM levels all depends on flow maps. RPM =\= turbo

where those not draw through rob or did they make a blow through one as well!
