1FAST7,
Those numbers are what I feel is the most efficient operating psi for those turbos. I'm sure they can go much higher if needed but I think the efficiency drops significantly if you go anything higher than that....

IS THIS TRUE?

boosted: that looks like ALOT of power! A few things that look kinda different ....and this could be because I'm not a dyno expert.....but the MPH looks a little low.....the temp is GREAT at only 60 and Cali. air at night when this was most likely done is very moist so higher hp....and why only to 7000? This car I would think can go higher than that. I'm not trying to say that this dyno sheet is false.....just pointing out things that I would look at if it was anyone that I knew.

Pluto: that's cool that you'll be out here.....looking forward to meeting you. My name is Elliott....I'll try and meet you when you guys aren't busy. The air should be good to run some sick times.....and Mazda is the sponsor. That's gonna make everyone push it a little extra I think. I thought your car would've been lighter than that.....that's stock weight. You still drive it on the street on a regular basis? I've taken my A/C,power steering(billet manual rack now),and all the other don't needums out. I'm hoping to get it down to about 2750-2800 with me in it and 80lbs. less than that when my girl starts to drive it

I thought they were running a fast trax turbo like Adam Sarawutari, with the dump truck housing? If they are really running a T-100 then I am getting one,

crispeed: go ahead and start the manifold

looks like i might be going with the KKK single turbo kit. Because it gives full boost at 4000rpm and gives a lot of hp. Does anyone know about lag for this turbo kit? less then t-78? thanks

p.s. who makes the T-100?

HMMMMM?

Seem like everyone in Cali make outrageous power with low boost!
I remember some time back there was this 3rd gen that made like 550 RWHP/430 RWTQ at 17psi! Now with this latest dyno run by another at 544 RWHP/447 RWTQ at 19psi I'm seriously thinking there's got be something special over there!
****!! I hope these guys are not using -- ----------- dyno

1fast7: you do realize that the turbo for $1650 is just that .....a turbo....not a kit. You would still need another few grand just to finish the kit. Is your car a daily driver? Autocross or drag race? I think someone could help you better if you stated what your driving intentions are.

crispeed: you don't think there dyno could be wrong do you? You have about the same climate conditions down there as they do....what do you think could be the variable? Is it not possible to get those #'s at low boost levels? They do seem a little high in comparison to some of the others I've seen.

Here's my take on the choice of turbos.

< 20psi

Apex IHI 6, Garrett T60-1, Garrett T62-1, Garrett T04S


21-25psi

T-64, T-66, Greddy T-78,

26-29psi

T-70, T-72, Greddy T-88

>30psi

T-100, Thumper, Y2K, HKS T-51R......
I also have to agree with Steve on this list.
The only turbo I would change would be---> the T-88 belongs on the >30psi list. I've seen what this turbo is capable of at 35psi, plus it's one of the only turbos truly capable of making 850RWHP(1000bhp)! Both the T-88 and the T-51R share one thing in common that the T04 based turbos don't have and that's a huge TURBINE WHEEL!!

ANYTHING is possible!

I don't think conditions are really the same here since we don't live in the city of the "MAKE BELIEF" and "MOVIES"!
Didn't you see the 'Fast and the Furious'.
One place you're not gonna make belief is on the score boards at the end of the 1/4 mile.

crispeed: your vehicle weight....is that with you in it? I saw somewhere that Ari Yallon has posted similar MPH (149-150). Does that mean his car only weighs in at 2600 with him in it? That's light! I would like to find out how he has done that. I'm just going off the calc. to find weight and ET and MPH.

I heard he has a fiberglass rear hatch.....does anyone know where you can buy these at? I'm still trying to get one done out of CF from my boy but he's slackin'.

I'm almost ready to dyno my car with a streetport and 2mm ceramic seals,T-88 and everything else that is aftermarket pretty much. I've been told that I would see around 500rwhp....is that realistic? I have the PFC in control......it is getting built in Cali. and will be tuned there so maybe.....

silvr94r2,

See the Knight Sports light weight rear gate on this page:

http://www.rxecret7.com/noname15.html

I have never seen it in person, but I just remembered seeing it on this site so I thought I'd post it.

1fast7: From reading all your posts, I believe the best turbo for you would be a Turbonetics 60-1 with P-Trim & 1.15 housing. This turbo would make more power then you can handle for the street.

The power on a rotary is found in the exhaust side of the turbo, all you need is a compressor wheel to keep up with it.

For a race setup I found the Turbonetics T66 to be another great turbo... Again the key is in the Exhaust Side!!!

I want a turbo for mainly street, but I also want to drag race, every now and then. Does this help a little?

Looks like a good kit to me,dont think you are just going to bolt it on and get those numbers though.SR's car with those number were highly tuned.

From what I have learned and read,TUNING is everything with these cars !

i still think your better off with the 60-1, and with the money you save you can put that towards better stuff like a Tial wastegate, custom manifold, intercooler, and a good fuel system...

If i buy the 60-1 and use the money on better wastegate, manifold, and intercooler will I be better off? Becuase i do have enough money for the KKK stage 2. Will the 60-1 with those extras give better hp and full boost at about 4-5rpm? Is the 60-1 just a bolt on?, or becuase if i get better wastege and manifold it would be difficult to install?

How about i make this easier for everyone. I want a turbo from 4choices.
1) KKK stage 2 single turbo upgrade kit
2) 60-1 with extras(better wastegate, manifold, intercooler)
3) 62-1 with extras(better wastegate, manifold, intercooler)
4) T-66 turbo either the kit or with a few extras

*I want a choice from these 4. From the list of these 4, which one will have the most HP, no too much lag(some lag is ok), I want it for street and sometimes drag, and is reliable. Which one is most expensive? though money is not really a problem.

I need an answer for this is i get an idea. Then I can make my decision. Thanks
