Tomei Evo 9 Turbo Upgrade with Pics!!
Hola,
Today we have a customer in here getting some PTE 780's and the Tomei ARMS turbo. Just wanted to share some pictures with everyone as we put it in!




This car put down 300hp and 305ft/lbs in its current setup with the stock turbo.
I will update this for an after of what the car puts down after the turbo.
Stay tuned for some updates!

The car should be on the dyno in the next couple hours. I will post up the results as soon as I am done tuning.

Our dyno reads pretty low.
I am the tuner guy. I have done a couple of these in my life. Unsmoothed it was around 310/315 on 91 octane and 23psi. And that was before mods. It had been tuned by someone else when it came in and it made more power with our tune. About the standard number for Evo 9 with mods on this dyno.
I am about to start the car now and put it on the dyno. I will let you know final numbers.

To my knowledge Mitch has yet to have a motor go on him yet! Thats some creditability for tuning for 10 years or so.

I have an update as we were here pretty late.
The car came out ok, honestly I was expecting a bit more. This car had a cat on it and we were starting to run into backpressure issues but still made pretty decent power.
I will scan the dyno sheet in just a bit.
Thanks,
Mitch

Like I said I am really un impressed with this turbo. I would opt for a green or BBK any day of the week.
Made ok power and I think with the cat our of it we would pick up 10-15hp but still a little lower than I would have liked on pump.
Comments concerns welcome.
Mitch
