I second the fact that this turbo does great in the upper rpm range above 6k. I just can't wait till next year when I do cams to really make use of this kit. As of now the season is almost over and I will just make do with what I have on the car by finishing the tune.

Great post and great information. actions speak louder then words . . . or so I've heard So the main thing I guess we're waiting for is cold hard dyno numbers and more importantly track times. . . . if the 57 makes 450+ on pump 530+ on pump/meth or sub 11second quarter mile times, it'll be golden; I can't wait!!

It pulls so much harder but only traps 1 mph faster than your stock turbo?

Well...the dyno numbers should be up within the week as Lucas from English Racing is working on my car as we speak. He is going to tune it and put the numbers up. I think if this turbo does 415-420whp on pump and 500-530 on race gas....its golden. Sub 11 sec. should be no problem with good driving.

Good luck to you !! I'm ordering this kit at the end of the week with my buddy so we're hoping for great results.

congratulations! you just made your self look like an idiot. *Please* read threads thoroughly before posting, unless of course you are not aware that an unfinished tune and a slipping clutch causes lower traps. then your just a noob.


For those who want to point out that it only traps 1 mph more than stock should know that on stock I was running a higher octane race gas and was pushing the tune all out. On this last day at the track I was no where near that on a lower octane E85 with the slipping clutch

Well I just picked up another fuel pump yesterday (walbro inline 255) so now I should be able to fix and finish the tune on the car then get it on the dyno this weekend. Definitely looking forward to what this car can do. All I need now is some cams and a new clutch.

cant wait to see results, is it reasonable to assume the 57 trim is evenly matched with a 3076r? smaller or bigger?

I don't know because I have never looked into the 3076, but I would imagine they are very similar
