3071 vs TME 10.5 hotside
I am trying to get 400WHP on the pump gas, and was debating between 3071 and TME with10.5 hotside.
It would be helpfull if anyone can contrbute as to whcih one will be easier to get to the 400WHP mark and which one would support 8500 RPM better without dying off.????
Thanks

The TME may "feel" more like 400hp as it is spools quick and "hits hard" around 3-4k rpm. The dyno curves I have seen have a rectangular plateu kind of shape.
In contrast the 3071 dyno curves I have seen, all have had more of a ramp shape passing the stocker/ TME's max hp around 4-5k and continuing upward.

If you roller bearing the TME unit you will easily see 400bhp at the flywheel and get 400ftlb but i guess you are talking at the wheels??? No way you will get 400atw out of the TME IMO
As said above though the way in which the power comes and torque comes in will easily surpass the 3071. 400/400 power torque is the ultimate with a RB TME turbo if you ask me, well it is on twisty road and tracks of the UK where you want immediate response rather than outright power. Anyway I guess you guys may differ on that though with your roads.

If a BB TME was availible and comparable in price I think the chioce would be obvious.

When pushing the limits of the turbo, you get the spike (highest hp/trq #'s) and then it settles down progressively losing power(unless cams are present). *You mostly see this done when someone is trying to break some kind of hp record with a turbo.*
Others tune it to have that "ramp" like curve you are referring too. This in my opinion is the best because the power is obviously over a longer power band instead of short one. Even though the leaner low rpm tune feels better, the power is more useful the other tune.
In this case the 3071 will be the better choice for your 400whp goal. Alky injection works wonders too.
