I personally wouldn't run any more than 21lbs on 91.

 

Well that sux *****. don't wanna run race fuel all the time, well not at 5 bux a gallon or whatever it cost.

yeah peer pressure sux.

 

Are you building an Auto-X Car or Drag car?

 

Depending on how Al tunes your car, you shouldn't have a problem running 24psi on 91. That's where my car is set on my pump fuel map. I've tuned the car to run 10.5:1 afr's on pump fuel, and i've retarded the timing a bit. A friend of mine runs 28psi on pump fuel on his eclipse. Both of our cars are running gt35r's, his is an e-cover, and mine a ported shroud s-cover. If our cars run ok on pump fuel at 24psi, I don't see why you couldn't do it with the stock turbo. You'll probably exceed the shaft speed efficiency of the turbo though. My stock turbo would only hold 22psi until about 6800 rpm.

 

roadracing more than autoxing. dragracing when i'm next to a z06, m3, sti, mustang, camaros.... at a redlight. Oh and supercharged s2000s driven by rich douchebags.

thanks 4 the info liberty. my turbos kinda stock. it's the tme. you think that would hold more boost than the stocker?

 

I'm not familiar with the tme, do you know where there is a flow chart for it?? The fact that we are at higher altitude than most of the rest of the evo world, we have to run more boost to make the same amount of power. A flow chart will tell you exactly how much power you can make and the pressure ratio it will make it at. By reading a flow chart, you can see exactly where your turbo is going to be most efficient.

 

you mean this? http://linux.forcedperformance.net/m...i_map_full.jpg

 

I've been searching the forum for dyno charts and I noticed that most of the stock turbo cars will make more torque than hp. I guess im too used to seeing larger turboed car dyno charts.

 

I've actually seen people who have said without upgrading the turbo to always make sure that you have more torque than hp on our cars, but you know, people say lots of things on forums

 

Nice numbers guys, I guess I have a slightly weak Evo

 

You'll be up there in time

 

Scott I cant see your dyno chart...im at work and gov comps suck...and I run 24 PSI with intake and upper IC pipe and HKS BOV. 25k miles almost 26 and my cars fine...except my clutch is dead...

 

But running on stock exhaust, stock fuel pump, stock injectors.......oh yeah and no fuel control doesn't make it a car that will last a while. It makes it a car that was rode hard and put away wet. Just my opinion. I would kind of like to have my car in a few years.

 

Ray, ray, ray ... get back to werk!

 

your car probably makes about 180whp with that much boost because your timing is being pulled like a bastard from the knock.
i gaurantee if you ran 20psi your car would make more power and be safer!
when rob says you can run that much boost you have to have the tuning to be able to do that!!! like retarding timing and adding fuel!

vtsnake anything over 20 to 22psi on the 16gtme is just blowing it right out of it's effeciency range! the 16g is just not that good up @ this elevation. if you want to make power up here your going to sacrafice spool up for more power! something that can flow 35 pounds per minute or more would be ideal for this altitude. this way you can run 20psi on pump gas and your outflowing a 16g @ 24psi by a mile.
