just got back from pfs and found out my cat is to restrictive but still managed a 463.8HP and 374.6 TQ @ 20psi on vp103
it made 417hp and 337 tq on 93 @ 15psi
i need a 3 1/2 inch straight exhaust

 

I would have thought that turbo would make more power at 20psi. Do you know what the exact sizes are on that jonta? Also wondering if your motor is not ported? Or some other reason aside from the cat? Anyway loose the cat and get a straight pipe with a Borla or someshit welded in.
I have a 4" down pipe to get rid off

Always glad to hear another customer of Ray though with a fast car on the road. Enjoy.

 

Nice numbers! I also thought that it would make more power at 20 psi. What were the afr's? Please post a chart, or email to cripsR6@hotmail.com.

 

just cause a turbo is capable of X HP
doesnt mean every diffrent setup will equel the same

Like stated
he needs a better flowing exhaust

 

the motor is a streetported 3mm from pfs with 500 miles on it
the boost spiked to 20 when the turbo first came on then fell to about 18psi. at 18 is when the 463 was reached but i just put 20 down because i knew people would say if it spiked that high then thats the boost it was at

 

Joe, your car is bitch. LOL jk, nice numbers, my car is going under the knife here in the next couple weeks

 

So lets clarify because I am about 100% sure that Ray would not build a motor with 3mm apex seals. I assume they pulled apart your old motor (which had 3mm apex seals already from what I remember) , ported it then re-assmebled and put it back in the car?

 

ray rebuilt my already street ported motor with the 3 mm seals because 1 of my old 3mm seals were sticking, now im runing ari yallons 3mm seals that he uses in his car and ray cleaned and enlarged my porting, then i installed it in the car

 

Read what he said guys, thus the lower numbers.

 

my cars numbers were the same. 418@15 psi 93 oct with the af61, i also have a stock cat
under my car.

 

They are good #'s. Right in line with that turbo. With a bigger, less restrictive exhaust you'll may pick 10-15rwhp more. Thats easily enough power to run 10's.
Congrats!

 

Great Numbers!

 

yeah, he can't make too much more power at that boost level, turbo's too small. it's only a 61mm compressor.

 

Are you kidding? ^^ That car is capable of more power

 

He means at that boost level. And the power is in line considering his restrictive exhaust.

 

the power is available once i change the exhaust and add c-16

 

>>and add c-16

??

 

c-16 = race gas + more boost which means more power

 

ohh right race gas, duh LOL :-)

I never knew that is what its called.

 

hey joe, did you get a new intercooler or are you still running the 2-row? If you are running the 2-row, you didnt have any problems boosting it up to 20 psi? I thought 15psi was the limit on a 2-row? Just curious.

15psi limit is a misconception.....I've seen Greddy 2 row FMI make over 500rwh with no issues.

JD

 

Thats good news for me =), since i have a 2 row and will be going single turbo here soon. Now i know if i want to turn up the boost to like 20psi with some race gas at the track i can.

Did you get a chance to go back since you got that midpipe?

 

not yet im trying to buy a datalogit so i can switch maps myself

 

hey wide, i got mine from rx7.com.... took two weeks. maybe sooner if they have them in stock. kvn
