Fayetteville/Ft Bragg/Pope AFB -- TAKE TWO!!!
well guys, 3rd turbo, 3rd bust. dave put in the new cams which helped out with the 50trim, but actually made the 20gLT before alittle worse, because it couldn't flow enough air for them up top. it would hit 29psi by 4k, but drop to 22psi by 7k. my third and final option is going to be a 3065r or the 35r. i still want the car to be some what fun to drive around everywhere, and not just on the highway, so i will probably stick with the 3065r. hopefully this one wont disappoint me too.

My only question is how do you get 29 psi at a lower RPM but can't repeat that number at high RPM? A turbo doesn't lose pumping power as it spins faster....

. If you try to map a 50 trim for that eng you'll see its way off at high rpm....under 5000 rpm, hold on.

yea, its called 50 trim on a stroker whith special bushur cams????. and you are correct the turbo is pumping its @$$ of but with that piston speed it needs more volume. id go with 35r small turbine housing...but thats me

Hey Bobby, does your donor car have the drivers side A-piller trim in good condition?
