just some plain facts from first hand experience with my friends car running a slowboy gt3076r, bolting on the kit he picked up +70whp on 94 octane over previous dyno run. he then installed hks 264i/272e cams and picked up another 50whp ending up with 450whp on 94 octane on a dynapack. i would give my first hand experience but i am currently installing the kit on my car as i have bought mark's kit previous employee of sbr

FWIW I believe that the BB 50 trim is a MUCH better turbo option and always seems to make more power.

Frustrated with meth? I feel you. My meth lab keeps giving me trouble.

Seriously though, those numbers are kind of disappointing. Lots of good feedback from the evom crowd so far. Keep us updated!

check your turbo hotside make sure it's not the .48
if it is you need to change it to .63 or .82

Regardless, 420whp@28psi with methanol injection is way way too low. For christ sake, people have made 420whp on the stock turbo at that boost level. Just about every EVO Ive seen with teh 3076 at 28psi+ has made 475+whp... something is not right.

First off thanks for all the suggestions.

Ive been lookin to find some people with similiar kits but havent been successful so far.

Im gonna dig into it today and do a boost leak test, check the gap, check all my gaskets and order me up a bigger nozzle.

Turbo Trix did the tune for these numbers but im thinking of trying someone else.
The AFRs were in the 11's...kinda hard to tell from the graph.

Yea im from jackson

Mike Im confused as to what Turbotrix had to say about this... they know for sure that your car should be making a lot more power than it did.

as stated above partner the cam setup is obviously a vital component to gettin power out of the setup 50+ with conservitive cams stockers are far too restrictive. that is above the +70 that the kit made alone on the stockers

What BOOST gauge do you have... could be off... a lot. My Defi was reading 25psi and I was running 22.5.
