DaVinci Motorworks / Garrett AF61R turbocharger
Yeah so, I was looking around RXTuner.com and I came by this article that mentioned a turbo made for the turbo rotary enthusiest. I personally was impressed with the numbers ( 393rwhp - 13psi @ 3700rpms on an unported 13b-rew ). I was wondering has anybody else used this turbo or seen it for that matter. I've searched all over this site to find it & it seems that it's unexplored territory. I was thinking about throwing in on a S4 13BT with a stage: 1 street port and some other internal mods. If anyone can supply some thoughts or info on this, i'd be appreciative.

Persona non grata
I'd much rather have the AF61R to a 60-1. The 61R kicked *** at 13psi, and would kick even more at 18-20 psi. The 60-1 just doesn't have what it takes to match up.
The good thing about the 60-1 is that you can find setups on Ebay for dirt cheap. However just over $2000 for the 61R is pretty damn cheap too.

Well there seems to be a large discrepency with what shops claim their kits make and what they actually DO make...not naming any shop in particular but its more then one. 393whp@13psi seems a bit optimistic, maybe the dyno is set for 10,000 ft altitude correction;p

I believe the car is in the RXtuner.com site under Articles "Going Single" That could help explain alot of questions. Hell, this would be where this topic originated
