what up everyone, well i finally did it, the turbos on, tuned, massive power, no traction. ever since the beginning of this project the car has been reluctant to be turbo, its given me and my friends one of the worst car projects to ever be worked on but some of the best experience we could learn. after fixing the injectors, spark plugs, oil feed line we finally got around to tuning it.

after hours of work and frustration, the final outcome is 272 wtq / 284 whp @ 8 psi and 308 wtq / 309 whp @ 10 psi.

EDIT: better scans





MODS: 3 in maf housing, 550cc DW injectors, ngk 1 step colder plugs, aem fic tuned by church automotive, invidia s pipe, megan mid pipe, prototype turbo mafia 3" axle back

 

wow how you get more torque than hp?

 

i didnt.

 

lol yea for some reason i read it as 272 whp and 284 wtq. Probably cause the numbers
are switched around =P.

Really nice results though =D.

 

very nice man. 10 PSI has gotta feel good.

 

Very good job!

 

thanks everyone

 

very nice job, now weres the pics off the setup on the car.

 

I was wondering if you did the entire Greddy kit, or just a custom job.

 

i did the basic turbo kit, i bought the fic, injectors, and pnp harness from turbo toyotas. the turbo was also rebuilt from deadbolt.

 

the graph kinda looks wavy but decent numbers too show, now race that beast and show us more!! haha

 

i got the same exact kit Greddy 18g FTW...cant wait to get tuned and see my numbers :D
and you answered all my questions....how many psi can greddy kit run
and how many hp i can expect

thank you :D

 

Good number man, but i wasn't your 309 HP run on 11.95 PSI?

 

According to the graph, it was a spike to 11.95psi then it tapers down to 10psi by redline.

So technically it was between 10-11psi.

Very good numbers.. the tune must be pretty aggressive. And if not, then the dyno is very generous.

 

does dynopak read the same #'s as dynojet?

 

wastegate is preset at 8 but if you buy a boost controller you can bump it up to what ever you want. my tuner recommended i not go over 10 psi on a stock block but if you build one you can run much higher psi.

 

dynapaks read a little higher because the dyno attaches to the hubs directly, a dyno jet can still have some wheel slip because it depends how grippy the tires are to move the dyno.

 

im a noob at all this turbo stuff, my dad got one for me without asking. but how do you turn up the psi on the turbo?

 

u need a boost controllerr

 

awesome numbers, do you have any pics of the car?
