how much whp are these turbos supposed to dyno at on a IX? lets say if the IX had an exhaust/reflash..thanks

 

That's the big question on everybody’s mind. But keep in mind you must have the right combination parts to begin with...

 

go onto forcedperformance.com they have a dyno graph on an ix with just an exhuast cam and a tbe without proper tuning or boost control and it dyno's to like 350whp i think. that is def good enough for me

 

for the lazy.. as per mitsubishipart.net $71.02 ...sure beats buschur $170.00 kit

Am I the only one who doesn't understand WHY, When a company dyno tests a new part they add additional parts to the mix as well? How do we know exactly what the gain was from adding just the turbo(LIKE EVERYONE WANTS TO KNOW?!?!) It just makes no sense to me and seems a little devious as well. But that's just MHO!

 

Which one is the pipe you need to connect the turbo to your LICP?

 

My guess is FP did those parts to achieve 100 more whp, and they figured that was a good place to stop.

Why these shops don't install the part alone is because they aren't effecient that way, and then people like you go freaking out saying it's a waste of money and didn't live up to the hype.

Certain new parts need supporting mods to show their true potential. I bet this turbo bolted on a stock evo alone will show at most 10-30 whp gain; which would quickly be offset by the ECU compensating.

 

That is the biggest crock of **** I've ever heard. The whole point of Dyno testing a new part is to say that on a stock car it made this but on a car with these supporting mods it made this. Or on this car it made this with the stock turbo but when we just changed the turbo to the new one it made this amount of HP/Trq. Testing new parts the way certain vendors have been doing it is deceiving and dishonest. They do it that way because of sheep like you that will post crap like that to justify the BS that goes on.

So tell me, in that set up how much move HP/Trq did the new turbo add over a stock IX turbo? You can't give me a definitive answer because the data isn't there because they juked the stats. Try again...

And my favorite is when you put a new part on but don't get the same or close to the same numbers that the vendor posted you would get. You come on here and post your findings and then the vendor says the reason you didn't get said numbers is because you have the wrong combination of parts to begin with. Even though you have pretty much the exact same combination but just different brands then said Vendor...

 

I watched the turbo dyno 450whp/450wtq on buschurs dyno, and watched it run the 10.88 @ 129 (my buddy has the timeslip). That right there is enough to get me to buy it.

 

And yet again, what other parts were on that car? This will just keep going on and on and on...Never any true answers but tons of new questions.

Sorry I took this off topic, I am very excited about this turbo just as much as the next person. I'm just tired of no true answers to all of these reasonable questions.

 

Some of the people on this thread need to understand how parts and combinations of parts work. If you install larger injectors on a stock engine, does that mean that the larger injectors don't work any better than the stock injectors. NO! It simply means you now have head room to add OTHER mods to get the benefit of the larger injectors. Now, add a better flowing exhaust or head (increase your engines airflow) and now you can take advantage of the larger injectors. Learn the basics before playing "QUESTION THE PROFESSOR and TRY TO CATCH HIM IN A LIE". It's pretty straight forward, some mods (Like a larger turbo) do their best work when other parts are added to the mix. What if the same boost, everything was left the same, turbo changed out, and only 10 hp difference showed up. Does that mean that the turbo is only good for 10 hp. I don't think so. Use your heads and common sense. Jeez

 

But that is the exact point. You are absolutely correct on all accounts but we as members want to see that initial 10hp gain(baseline) and than see what can happen with other parts. That's what dyno testing is all about. New part equals this amount, new part with these other parts equals this amount. Not just with all of these parts we got this number. So buy this ONE part. It doesn't wok that way. See what I am getting at? But you are correct, excellant points across the board.

 

My example used a 10 hp gain, but in some cases, such as the injector example I used, a horsepower gain may not show up until other mods are completed. If that's the case, some improper assumptions might be made that the turbo doesn't add anything, when in fact it added huge potential. For example, what if the stock IX turbo is maxed at 28 psi and tuned. Now you add the new 20G-LT, and tune for it. You would see the true increase in power. On the other hand, if the stock turbo wasn't maxed and you change to the 20G-LT and leave the tune the same, a false impression of it's potential appears. That's my point. Potential is the improvement, not necessarily immediate results at the same settings. Thanks for your response.
