I'm wondering if anyone's done the numbers and knows where ideal, peak boost is for this turbo. I'm currently running Buschur's Deluxe IC and piping, FP's actuator and 10.5 hotside. I'm running a SOLID 25psi with early spool and no lag with 1-2 gallons of 100 octane mixed into the normal 93 octane diet.

I'd like to know where the point of diminishing returns starts with pressure and temp.

Thanks for any help!

 

I recall that we've estimated it will reach choke point around ~10% greater flow than the 16G, which equates to an additional 30whp or so in ultimate potential. As to where this occurs with respect to boost pressure and rpm, that's going to vary somewhat with the particulars of the setup. The more efficient a particular setup is at peak power, the lower the pressure the choke point.

 

Well that sure as hell ain't definitive ... *Laughs*

Anyone have WR experience to share about boost pressures, builds, and peak numbers?

 

But its correct and if your trying to get "ultimate flow numbers" from other users off a message board your playing with fire. If the compressor charts arent published by the turbo man. then you will have to do the old MABT on a dyno.

 

From what I was told 27-28psi is the sweet spot. Once the warmer weather comes along and if I still have the turbo I'll push it a little farther. Right now I have it at 25psi and it pulls very nice.

 

Thank you for that input.

 

Try and post your results. Info on the WR seemed to have dried up a few months ago. Good luck!
