fmic

13-14psi thru gfb boost controller

plazamaman plenum

impressive, sounds like a high reading

u dont mind if stuff goes pop right?

[202.3rwkw]

why would i be worried about things going pop?

[Mr. Oizo]

stock turbo?

[Medium Dave]

14 psi is a lot for a standard turbo.. too much for mine, for instance

yeah still the standard turbo, injectors and fuel pressure. car was properly strapped and in shoot_6f with correct dyno cell info entered

220rwkw on stock turbo?

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[R31Nismoid]

First time ive heard of a stock turbo actually making power above 12psi rather than just blowing hot air around.

[paulr33]

care to post up your maps?

[MKDR33]

its quiet possible, i got 220rwkw with a stock turbo on mine, i had the following:

stock turbo

custom exhaust manifold

turbo back 3" exhaust (split dump pipe)

Blitz POD

FMIC

SAFC II

electronic boost controller

we pushed it to just over 1bar on the dyno, but for regular driving i kept it on 12psi (for safety reasons)..

you can see the spiking due to the cheap hybrid electronic boost controller i had at the time, with the new turbosmart valve it actually holds boost a lot better..

r33 stock turbo @ 14psi...assunming u drive like miss daisy and never actually get to 14psi then u will be ok I guess...however lookout for u wheel to let loose and get crap in ur engine if u drive like the rest of us.

Dyno charts don't mean squat. Get a group of cars, at the same dyno, on the same day, then you can compair mods to power.

220 sounds really high for a stock turbo. At 13psi i would expect 180-200rwkw max. There is no rule for max boost on stock turbo, it is basically like playing "Russian roullette". Some turbos can live on 15psi for years without any problem, others will blow on 10psi after a couple of months. Your turbo is more likely to blow at anything over 12psi, but mine lasted for years at 13psi and still was in good condition when i sold it to upgrade to a bigger turbo.

Before my hi-flow, I ran my stock turbo at 1BAR (14.7psi) for 2 years of daily driving, only made 175kw though. When I pulled it off it was still in good nick, with very minimal shaft play.

I don't get it, do people like wishing their turbo hangs together all the time? Is the thrill of knowing your turbo could let go at any time and possibly damage your engine that good? Maybe this sort of mentality explains a lot of blown engines/parts? I think i might be onto something here..

yeah...its kind of like mastabating with a cheese grater

LOL

Slightly amusing but mostly painful!!!

hi guys,

here is the dyno run as requested. i apologise it is only the 219.7rwkw run that we printed off, so i guess i dont have 220kw but close enough. I am not really expecting the turbo to hang on for that long but there is plenty of fuel there so we'll see. If this little exercise has only done one thing thou, it has definatley shown me the advantages of working with your selected tuner to achieve the results you desire.

the chiptorque crew spent a fair share of their free time to get that done for me, and so i must recommend them to all u guys as a fantastic business that will get you the results you want.

cheers

70 dyno runs it appears so i'd say they put some time into it.

the plazmaman plenum seems to be racking up some good results.

[Cubes]

Both dyno sheets posted that have made 220rwkw odd are not holding that 14psi or whatever to peak power...

So... Peak power of 219rwkw was made on roughly 12.6psi and the other dude that made 220rwkw... That was on a shade over 10psi.

So yes.. hrmmmmm, either way its a power figure... Who cares, A real 220rwkw I'd expect a high 12 sec pass with a good driver.

200rwkw.. A low 13. Once again with a decent driver who can drive.
