what about Diverter valves? Is the oem ix good enough for 30psi on red?

I know I can't do a vta, but was wondering what everyone else with red's are using for DV/BOV ?

 

Here's my setup below.... Im going to be porting my turbo. also my intake and exhaust mani soon and adding a aem ems to try to squeeze every drop out or her. Im hoping for 550whp.

 

Injector sizing is relative to fuel properties/differential pressure, max engine RPM (available inj time per cycle), and ECU/induction strategy. While one car may be overkill on 850's another will be needing 1200's.

 

Some say that if you crush it, then it will hold 30 psi, but it will only hold 25-27 without crushing. I went with the Forge RS, much better!!!

 

I've been using Forge diverter valves on my turbo cars for years and years... they have always worked flawlessly.

 

i did 379/313 on a mustang dyno that reads dead on with Buschurs dyno with a stock IC/block/ecu 93 oct at 26psi...

turned up the boost to 30psi 421/355.....93oct....so you can see with 4psi more i picked up almost on 40hp and torque went up...

If anybody planning on running boost levels lower than 25psi id stick with the green...the red does love boost but can still perform awsome in 25-30psi levels..

 

Going with the APS Twin.

 

SRT-TO-EVO How much do you expect to make with what you have in your sig and pump 93 vs E85?

Iam thinking of an fp Red as well but I have to get a shopping list together to prepare for it. My mods in my sig is just a start and Iam sure I have a lot more to add....

 

i am still on stock clutch, syncro's, etc. 44,000 miles. mods below. (someone asked earlier if anyone was on stock clutch)

i had a plastic stock BOV, AMS recommended a billet samco sport DV. car is tuned for E85 holds boost fine with no bucking or drivability issues. AMS ftw.

 

looks like i'll be running 880's or 1000's. i plan on adding the cams in the spring.

 

Well on E85 I know I should be REAL close if not at 500whp. But the RED isn't going in until cams get here, ported intake mani, TB, injectors etc. I'm still contemplating on the stock ECU or AEM EMS.

meth does wonders.

 

Does anyone have a side-by-side picture of the IX turbo and RED? Or IX -> Green -> RED...that would be neat to see all 3 size wise.

 

Anyone using bigger oil feed lines for the Red? Or is everyone using the OEM oil feed hard lines?
