As the name says, this is just to cure some curiousity thats has been hovering over me lately. What turbos do you all run & what numbers are you seeing? As far as strips & dynos are concerned? For the supercharged crowd, same question. Also, about what rpm does your turbos start to spool & at which rpm do they make their peak power?

 

You're probably best doing a *search* in the single turbo forum. You'll get better responses there. This sort of information is all over the place.

I run a 66.7mm GT compressor with a GTQ turbine wheel and a BB CHRA. Makes 15psi by 3500, 19psi by 4000 and previously dynoed 467RWHP at 19psi on a 101/91 mix of fuel.

i got a friend with an fd that has a t78 turbo and he pushes 10 pounds of boost on the street and makes 575 rwhp with just about everything that can be done to his engine but all i know is that it is a t78

 

What sort of boost is he running to do 575?

 

575 on ten pounds of boost. Not on a rotary. Big Block 502 yes. 1.3 liter no your friend lies

 

Ya LOL! even though I think 502's suck to. I would rather have a 427!

 

400rwhp T66 going easy or it.. bud made 495rwhp at 19psi on T66

 

repost - delete (I couldn't)

 

rebuilt and upgraded stock mitsu ht-18. Upgraded compressor to 46 trim. Running around 10-11 a/f (pretty rich) and laid down 261.1 rwhp and 220.5 rwtq at an even 1 bar (13.5 psi). I'm very proud

 

my friend said he made 575 he may be lying he may not be but to try and make sure i will try to get a dyno slip from him sometime soon.

 

Ok heres what i found out.....he is making 575 hp but it is at 14,000 rpm which he rebuilds every other summer.

 

Good one. Never heard that before.

So he's running only 10psi on a T-78, which is barely breaking a sweat on that turbo, but is revving to 14k rpm...

 

This does not appear to be a 2nd gen topic. Moved to General Rotary.

 

14000 rpms and only 10 pounds of boost. Yeah right what is his intake filter a straw, and his exhaust is 1 inch? You friend is full of ****.

 

I can see where you are coming from, seeing is believing and i guess you would just have to see the dyno slips and just check the car out to believe it because i guess i didnt believe it either when i heard it until we took the car to the track and on to a dyno.

 

1 bar = 14.7psi.

 

I was specifically talking about second Gens when I was asking about this particular topic. I already know FD guys make some pretty amazing number, but I don't own an FD, I own a FC, Maybe I should've been a little more specific. But, nice setups to the people who posted anyway. Maybe one day i'll be posting some high whp numbers & some quick e.t. times. But, as I say all the time. Got to crawl before you can run the quarter mile. aka Turbo II swap first. Maybe have the motor streetported before it's put in. That would be GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREAT!
