Dear god. Please post the dyno charts before and after.

Peak numbers are a stupid measurement. I bet the stock turbo setup fell on it's face after 5.5-6k...while your current setup pulls like a train up to redline.

Your numbers for "before" sound just about right...that's what I was making with a 2.5" turboback, uppipe, and Cobb Stage 2. As far as the after...how conservative is your tune? 18psi sounds pretty high.

Just run it with an open downpipe.

As stated by m'pizza and Gagan peak numbers whilst great for the dick swinging contests don't really have all that much bearing on the real world. I would suspect that your overall power curve is much broader now than previously.

Scan those bad boys

I put my 3rd cat eliminator on yesterday, and then took the car to ATP. Bill from I-speed tuned the car and now its making 270WHP and 256WTQ. My car hits full boost @ 3700RPM, so the low-end power isn’t as bad as I thought it would be. The car pulls very strong, and keeps pulling and pulling until it hits the rev limiter. I think I can definitely smoke some ricers now. LOL I’m very happy w/ the results and want to thank all of you for your support, especially Bill, for putting so much time and effort into my car. I've had nothing but good experiences w/ I-Speed.

Amir,
Dude, come to UCKK, i want a ride


If you went to a 3" you'd get even more power, and would probably lose a tiny bit of torque and it would peak a little later.

However, your numbers seem great. But listen amir, peak numbers are just numbers... take the car to the track, and do a couple runs or something, and really understand how fast it is. Peak numbers are great to show off and all, but it's all about the curve and what's underneath it.

Who cares what it dynos? Take it to the track and see what kinda trap speed you have... That's a better measure of your performance IMHO.
