As promised Sudz:
RASB w/ X-Swap on RRE Dynopack
Mods (pertinent):
Stock X turbo, mani, lines, actuator, etc
Tomioka Racing Widemouth DP
cp-e HFC
STOCK CAT BACK (major restriction right now, stock RA catback is 2.25" vs Evo catback 2.6")
RRE Muffler Mod
AEM intake
Grimmspeed 3-port
3" IC and 2.5" IC piping



What's truly awesome is that the low rpm is identical, and where the RA turbo runs out of breath she now keeps on pulling (~70whp more at 6500 rpm )

I was taking some random pics and liked this one:

Nice numbers, both of you guys! I needed an internet calculator to find out what a kilowatt means to me. 204kW = 273whp! Both are posted. Thanks!

Since I've been seeing many contributions from the community, I've edited the dyno plot section on post #4 to show only member's cars. Random Evo X plots have been removed. Thanks to all for making this possible.

So what what are the expected numbers for an EvoX upgrade with TBE? I was thinking about 300/300, but some of these dyno graphs show lower numbers even with upgraded turbos (from an EvoX).

Evo X models and RAs with an X turbo are capable of 300/300 depending on the tune and supporting mods, but how many mods it takes depends on the dyno. On a high-reading dyno, such as a Dynojet, it should be fairly easy to see 300/300. However, on a low-reading dyno like a Mustang, it will take more work and more mods to hit those numbers.

FYI, Ryan Gates' 311RS Evo X project dynos at 351/358 with these mods:
AMS bolt-ons and tune, SRI, FMIC, UICP, LICP, widemouth downpipe, HFC &CBE.
www.311rs.com

Identical mods on an RA with X turbo swap should net you at 300/300 at the very least.

I'm not done tuning my car, the posted graph is only with fuel and boost changes. The timing maps need to be completely redone (still from the RA turbo, lots of room for improvement), expecting another 20-30 whp. Then MIVEC tweaks to see if I can eek out a bit more

OK, so here are my #s with the EvoX turbo! 300 on the dot! I'm sure the number is not exactly 300 but close enough. Many thanks to Mitch from AMS!

Might want to put some smoothing on that chart. Pretty sure the car doesn't feel like a roller coaster ride.

Added 10Sportback's rollercoaster plot . Will replace it with a new, more smooth one as suggested by Razorlab if it is posted. Thanks!
