Got the new setup tuned today! As usual, Shane couldn't push timing much as beaterX is kinda a ***** and/or we just don't have very awesome pump gas around here. Shane said that the car *loved* timing in that it would make decent gains for every degree added but it wasn't always liking it. We ended up running only about 13° up top, really a lot less than I expected, but the car feels fantastic now.

It rolled in at 321whp @27psi tapering to 25-25.5 and left with 346 @ 28 tapering to 26 and a crap-load more midrange than it came in with. More on that in a sec.

28psi peak, tapering to 26. Here's where a BCS might help a bit up top, but my FMIC is overtaxed as it is, so meh. Both Bryan@GST Motorsports and Chad@CBRD said that every psi over 25 yields great great gains on this turbo and that 28 is a great target for pump gas.


Nice and rich to help prevent knock


Here's the best! When I first bolted this thing on, it was at or below the torque of my stock turbo. NOW with the tuning love from DB Performance, I went from 282wtq on the stock turbo to 311wtq with the BBX! Granted, I also have the MAP o2 elim downpipe on the car now as well but it really doesn't matter, the new setup lost some spool but I'm up torque and power bigtime!

+68whp/+29wtq over the stock turbo


Lost about 800rpm of spool, but this turbo is rated at 58lbs/min. Seeing 25psi by 3900rpm is pretty damn good imho.


I'm extremely happy with the new setup! So smooth, decent power, and should be very reliable. Time to go to the track and see if I can get this bish into the 12's! I've got 2000 miles on the ACT 6-puck and 1000 miles on the BBX already; I'm ready to just keep driving this thing and keep having fun!

That thing owns the stock turbo, nice. I have a question about the 28 to 25 taper is that because of pump gas or because of something else, could you run 28 across the board?

nice numbers

What does a stock Evo x dynonon this dyno dynamics?

nice numbers for just bolt-ons.....

Thanks for the nice comments! Stock evoX I'm not sure, prolly in the neighborhood of 220whp. Stock evo8's make 205-215, IX's 215-220 I think. This is your standard, uber-low-reading Dyno Dynamics dyno.

Congrats, looks like a nice setup!

Very nice sir!

Glad you like it!

good results!

cheers

Thanks again for the insanely awesome service and a great, 100% stock appearing product! The more I drive it, the more I really love this setup!

nice curve.
