Great work Mike Lowe
Just wanted to say got back from Lowes performance in Sarasota Florida. Mike did a great good on the rebuild of my engine. And thank you to A-spec for getting my turbo back and fixed from Garrett in a timely manner. Sorry Ryan for being so pushy.
Here is what happened: Have a 500R, with the billet housing, PFC, 550/1600, walbro fuel pump, meth injection running boost juice, Apexi twin power greeddy boost controller, AEM wide band. 4inch , straight trough black Apex seals, street ported by Mike and build. and some other stuff.
For some reason the waste gate wasn't holding boost, there was a 11lb. spring in it but still shooting up way high. Mike was saying how I need a higher wastegate ie: instead for 44mm. a 50.
Brought it over to the dyno and the 1st run made 405 at 15psi. and about 7,000rpm. The 2nd run did 456 and went past 15, it was around 17psi. at 7400rpm. Mikes son had to let off cause fuel was running out. I guess the fuel pump couldn't keep up. Regardless I am totally stoked with the power this thing made toady, absolutely phenomenal.
Mike then wanted to check the meth injection to make sure it was working. We undid the nozzle and found out the it was only shooting out very little boost juice maybe 1oz. each time. Pretty sure it should be coming out a lot more then that right?
I recommend anyone to go to his shop and get work done. Car pulls like no tomorrow and its pretty scary to drive.
I will post the sheet soon.
