That's what really makes the great spool and torque in the lower rpms in a stock set-up. I've looked at non-sequential dyno graphs and the torque and power curve don't even come close to the stock set-up. I haven't seen any set-up that can beat the stock twin sequentials as far as lower rpm (3krpm or lower) in torque.

m2 BB sequentials did better than stock down low
how i miss them.

am watching this kit very closely...I have not yet seen a full custom twin setups performance. just the hybrids....

Yeah, the anti-lag system is on the turbine wheel, not compressor wheel.
Thanks for catching it.

Art, nice torque curve! Last time I looked through dyno graphs in the forum was almost 3 yrs ago.

I meant to say the stock manifold (sequential) system rather than "stock turbos." The point being that you get both exhaust pulses (front and rear rotors) to spool the small primary turbo quickly and then transition the secondary turbo at higher rpm.
It's great for daily driving and parking lot events.

I'm hoping for this evening. Every free moment this last week has been dedicated to syncronizing the wastegates. Unfortunately the car must cool down for a least 2 hours before I can get to the actuator rod without getting third degree burns. Trial and error has really tested my patience.

Talking

Can't wait to see the dyno numbers, Mike showed me the kit on his car (wasn't complete) while i was their getting a new ignition. The turbos look bad ***, and those turbines spun so easy when Mike spun one.

We did a bunch of pulls on the dyno today. As I recall we hit 379 RWHP at 16lbs of boost. These are mustang dyno numbers, so on a dynojet they would be somewhere around 420 RWHP. I will post the dyno graphs tomorrow.

not 100% true it all depends what the dyno operator puts in the car config settings of the dyno. My friends shop can make a supra w/ 500 rwhp (dynojet) 600rwhp or even 425 rwhp all with a couple of key strokes on his Mustang Dyno. I even saw a stock Evo spin 330WHP to all 4 wheels! This car was 100% completely stock! To really compare the 2 dynos you need to put the car on a dynojet in a similar enviorment.

I think Mustang dyno sheets show some of those settings on the top of the dyno sheet?? I guess you could compare those to other sheets

Very true that you can make the #s come out any way you want, but the RX7Store's current dyno graphs are on base Mustang #s, meaning no correction #s entered and the lowest #s the dyno will produce as programmed from Mustang.

We have had several of our local customers tested on different dynos in the area and showed between 10 and 12% higher #s than on ours.

Any luck on getting the graph scanned? I'm interested to see when you start to see the jump at and how wide the band ends up being.

Was that on pump gas or race gas??

Here is one of the graphs. Boost was between 15-16lbs.

The dip in the graph was from losing tach signal for a sec.

This car still needs additional tuning correct?

Its still running a little rich and could bump the boost up.

We are still dialing in the boost control settings on the spec II. Our initial trails had the wastegate coming online at 10 psi. The spool RPMs were nearly identical to my ported, stock cassette, non-seq twins until 10 psi, and tapered a bit after. The internal wastegates on the GT28Rs have 4lb springs. We tuned for just under 17psi on the new set-up.

Other trace data showed my 50-120 mph time, on the dyno with inertia settings on, was .9 seconds quicker than the old set-up.

For comparison's sake, my 15psi, non-sequential set-up would jump a car length (from a 40 roll) on a 17 psi GT35R car instantly. It also ran a 11.83 @116.

I feel confident that we can reach 17psi by 4000 rpms and hope to get an opportunity to "re-tune" this week to confirm the data..

That is awesome. I have been watching this kit's development for a while and its good to see numbers.

Sorry if this has already been mentioned but can they successfully be run sequentially? And what's the recommended boost? Thanks.

Seeing as how each turbo gets it's own runner from the exhaust manifold....no.

The numbers look pretty unimpressive for the cash outlay and complexity, I suppose the kicker is that those turbos can run easily and reliably at those power levels? They seem to spool a bit quicker than stock non-seq as well.

so are you saying that it ran at 10psi? or did you get it to go at 15psi? because the posted dyno sheet seems rather disappointing for that setup running @ 15psi.

Those runs were around 16psi and use a mustang Dyno which reads lower than a dynojet. HP would be over 400HP on Dynojet.
