Well, from what I have seen I think that it can be achieved at 22psi with the correct fuel map, and most likely water inj. But I agree, the turbo will do much more, I just dont have the money to build the bottom end right now if it does go from running that much pressure..... [:@]

 

you can make more power than most on a journal bearing turbo, but your still risking damage trying to push 350ahwp on stock rods.

 

when i asked about what you were running, i ment for the turbo. i mentioned i'm thinking about getting that turbo and wanted an idea of what you needed for it and how much it cost you.

 

Get the maf sensor away from the turbo.

 

turbo
manifold
dp
oil lines
injectors
sw
new hardware (nuts/bolts)
stuff for intake

total cost is $2500-3200 depending on parts used and where they are sourced

 

Coolant lines if it's ball bearing.

 

you dont really need the coolent lines for gt turbos, but it helps.

 

Yeah, for my gtrs, i had them disconnected and never had any issues.
And tdn, cincy hit it right on the nose. I spent right at 2500 putting the kit on.
turbo-700
manifold + flanges-300
downpipe- 100
oil lines-125
intake-50
if you need a new compressor outlet pipe- 50
misc hardware/fasteners-100
....then whatever tune you run with (1000 +-250)....puts you right at 2500-3000.
But I would highly recommend this setup over the previous gtrs setup, as spool time is not a huge difference (600-800rpms), and the power comes in much stronger. I am building a custom megasquirt standalone right now, and should have it on in the next month or so....then starts the real fun.....

 

thanks guys. after searching it seems like with the right tune it should be very reliable and inexpensive setup.. well compared to the apr stage 3.

 

if you think its to laggy, throw on a .48 and you should take off about 500rpms of lag
