Turbotrix X- 104whp over stock so far...

http://www.turbotrix.com/wordpress/

We just finished up our turbo back exhaust system and did a few more dyno pulls. 328whp so far on the stock intercooler without any fuel tuning!

Wow! Great work.. Car still has the cat in place? Is the turbo close to being maxed out or is there more room for more boost?

Nice work.

How much boost peak? And how much are you holding at peak HP?

AMS needs to get on that downpipe, look at the gains just from changing the damn thing. And AMS said that it wasn't restrictive at all! LIARS! lol just kidding. But seriously, TURBO TRIX, you guys f***ing rule. Front mount, according to AMS' results, should net a gain of about 10-15 hp by itself, add in tuning, and I think that we'll be in the neighborhood of 375-400whp on a dynojet/ 325-350 on a dyno dynamics or a mustang. BTW, keith what's with the dipping of power when the cat back was installed? At about 6000 rpms, it looks ike there might have been some knock, but seems to be gone with the downpipe added and cat removed. Is this correct, or was the dyno just losing the pickup signal during that run? Get this thing tuned, you guys are killing me with the suspense! Oh, and keith is this still with the ic pipe configuration from the pics that were shown initially, or is this with a new config? Thanks man.

We're hoping to get everything to the bender by the end of the week. As soon as that happens we'll be putting test fitting them on the local carsfi. We'll have them for sale right after that.

As far as the boost, we're at 24psi and it drops to 20 by redline. If we try to turn it up past that it goes into limp mode. It really needs a tune. It's so rich you can feel the car fighting itself.

Good. Everyone else testing these has the boost dropping to 17 psi by redline or less. I was begining to wonder if the turbo was physically able to hold 20 to 21 psi at 7000 RPM.

I have a way to dial out boost taper completely as long as the turbo is able to physically do 20 to 21 psi at 7000 RPM without running out of flow.

So its hit fuel cut at higher than 24 psi during peak torque in the lower RPM's? It would be nice to run a peak of 24 psi and hold it to 7K, I dont think the compressor wheels got enough flow though.

Jeff,

do you have an expected price on the piping kit? Test pipe? Down Pipe? exhaust?


round about would be nice... if not exact pricing would be better?

Keith, what are you guys doing to make the car hold 20 psi at redline? Everyone else's seems to be dropping to 17 psi. Ooh, you guys are the only ones with a down pipe in the exhaust system yet, could it be that it's just flowing so much better that boost is easier to hold now?

It's hard to say until we get word back from the bender. We'll post up more as soon as we hear something.
