Evo 8 cbrd bb-b e85
I have a 03’ BBY Evo with 145K miles on stock bottom end (Original owner). Recently I purchased a CBRD BB-B turbo and with the recommendations of my tuner a few other items listed below.
Current Mods on the car prior to turbo and new parts install:
1. FP 20G9LT
2. PTE 680cc Injectors
3. Kelford 272s
4. Buschur Street FMIC along with upper and lower piping
5. Hallman MBC
6. 3” TB Ultimate Racing Exhaust with Cat delete
7. Walbro 255
8. Buschur MAF Intake
9. Buschur Ported Exhaust Mani and O2 housing
New Mods:
1. CBRD BB-B – Antisurge Cover and Ported
2. Sparktech COP, nonCDI
3. FIC 1450cc injectors (Tuned for E85 and 91oct)
4. Grimmspeed EBC
5. ETS 4” Intake
6. Speed Density Conversion
7. Wingz Double Pumper (we didn’t end of installing, explanation below)
The parts were installed and car was tuned by a local guy here in Az, Phuong (Wingz Performance). After the parts were installed and baseline obtained (Virtual Dyno 1.2.3) yielding around 380-390whp/350wtq at 22psi. The tune prior to this was done at 26psi on a dyno dynamics in CT in January (super cold) and according to the dyno it was 428whp (Pretty sure there was a correction factor).
Anyways, so after getting a baseline, my tuner had asked me my goals for the car on E85. Not really thinking about longevity (at the moment) I was kinda surprised he asked me that question. Then we started talking and because of the high mileage of the engine 145k, about 65K on ACT clutch, and this car is now my only available means of transportation, we decided to stay conservative. So with keeping it conservative, we decided not to install the double pumper and the tuning began on E85.
Right off the bat at 29psi the car hit 517 (See second dyno sheet). At that power level, and because we didn’t install the double pumper, the car ran out of fuel…surprise, surprise.
Turned the boost down to 26-28 and the car was at 480ish, still running out of fuel up top.
Finally, settled on 24psi on E85 right around 470ish and 400wtq. See last dyno sheet.
Overall I am extremely happy with this turbo, the tune, and the driveability of the car. I can honestly say, with this setup, and the tune, the car is smoother than it was stock. I have ZERO surge, and the turbo is sooo loud I cant even hear my BOV that much (forge recirc style now vented). Phuong spent countless hours working on my car and didn’t give it back until it was perfect (even though I was bugging him all day to come pick it up.)
As you can see from the 517 graph, this turbo has some more room in it and I will be challenging that soon after the motor build (already started saving).
For now the car is exactly what I was hoping for.
GREAT Turbo and Awesome Tuner…Thanks Phuong!!!
