The t.v. might slow you down, unless you have fast and furious playing.

I was thinking 17 psi low boost and maybe around 24 high boost...

Well AJC13B made 550 to the wheels at 24psi, but I'm guessing his porting is probably bigger than yours so.... maybe around 510 to be conservative? Either way, its a badass turbo.

Bring lots of ice(place the ice bags all over the engine) and if you have it NOS, to spray on the intercooler....also try and use race gas...I bet you can really get some high numbers!!!!!!

I figure the person dynoing the car wants to know what their car is putting out in real life, not made to order situations.

At least that is why I got my car dynoed.

Steve did the corrected 550 on a TA45 (bigger turbo than a Gt35/40) with "mildish" cleaned up porting ?

Though on 24psi with your turbo you will crack 500rwhp no worries That my be the first over there to do that maybe ??? Nocab did 480 something ? just guessing now but yeah you will have enough power to get you into trouble

Well if the motor is broke in go ahead and dyno it. I would dyno it at 17 psi and drive it on the street and see how you like it before risking dynoing it at 24 psi. I lost one Motor on his Dyno and it only had 18k. Also ask the guy what will happen as far as compensation if he blows it up. If he says nothing then be more careful. Its likely that the turbo will get taken out if the motor blows. Then you can watch 7+ grand circle the drain.

True that.....just nice to show people......

when I go to meets or races etc.....

the people come around and say the same thing, we have all heard it........

uuuuuummmmmm, what have you done?
ummmmm, how much power?
how much boost
how much did it cost?


I hate listing mods, it takes for ever and rethink all the money I have spent.

I use to like to talk about it, but now my answers are:
what have you done?....."lots"
how much power?..."enough"
how much boost? .."it varies"
how much did it cost?..."to much"
