And why do you think that you won't find any of that info on the single turbo forum? If you've "heard of Australians running 2bar", then why not just go ahead and turn the boost up to that point, and let us know how it all works out?

What pertinant fuel modifications do you have this will also be a deciding factor in the amount of boost you plan to run. Please enlighten us.
On a side note.... yes you have heard of some of the Aussie's running 2 bar, however, have you taken into consideration that many of those are strictly track cars. Do you plan to street drive your car?
What are your plans for your car. I asked all these things in your other thread. If you give people a better idea of what you're looking to use the car for it might help in us giving advice.

Like, Norway's octane ratings are probably on par with Australias, not North America's.

european gas is rated in RON
US gas is rated in (RON+MON)/2
the "rule of thumb" to convert from RON to the us rating is -5 octane points.
so 98 european becomes 93 US. Still better than the #@## they sell in cali
if you want to read more about RON and MON...there is a ton of info on the web

High boost and a built motor will of course do you know good if you don't have the fuel supply to keep your motor alive. You need to ask some of the Autronic guys their setups, and power range on various levels of fuel. That is your best bet. But one thing I do believe many people will tell you is that being that you plan to drive this car on the street the level of boost you're planning to push is a bit high. Most common response you might see is "this isn't a supra." Like I said search for members using the autronic and ask them, for their setup that would benefit you the most IMO.

Jason ran 19 (?) psi on his T78 and put down a little over 500whp? But I don't think his was a normal T78... Anyway, I think 15psi for a T78 is about as low as you want to go... a turbo of that size wouldn't really get 'going' until higher psi.

Yeah I believe it was 19psi at which he dynoe'd 506. I remember reading somewhere that T78 he was running was upgraded for some reason I think it was using the compressor wheel of the gt40 but I'm not 100% sure about that.

Shifti you may want to consider the gt40r as well or the t51r kai. The gt40r should put you in the t78 range with a bit better spool or if you want just bigger hp there is the t51 to consider. Just a thought however.
