Dyno'ed

i may have been able to get 10-15 more hp by way of a boost controller. the boost would spike to 14.7 psi at 4000RPM and drop to about 8 psi by redline. if i could get it to hold 14 or so PSI across the board she would be loads faster. this is the stock turbo

as you can see, between the 1st runs and the last runs, i was able to make my powerband come on about 600RPM sooner. my current curve is the one in blue. SAFC didn't help me much in tuning, its kind of a rough guestimate at best.

Thanks for posting your dyno stats, man. Kinda give the rest of the guys and girls a realistic view how things would perform stock and then how they would be if they were slightly modified, to decently modified. That little T25 is on boost really fast at about 2200rpm and that makes good for an everyday fun car. Glad you didn't blow your engine and keep up the good work. I just love success stories!

hey hank what mods do you have..those are sum nice numbers....cant w8 to see the numbers w/ the t28 :P

[biosehnsucht]

is this bone stock or did you have a MBC to get it to that boost spike ?

[parker]

im curious as well.. what mods do you have?

[r34 gtr]

that thing has a crap load of torque too. must be a pretty quick car. i cant wait to get mine to a dyno - of course to do that its gotta stop breaking every time i drive it.

well this post inspired me to go outside and install my turbo xs single stage mgc :O ....wow...it was boostin around 8-9psi on the gauge be4 i installed it...took it for a test ride to see where the contoller was set (havent used it in like 2 yrs lol)....str8 to 11psi..and man i dunno if im hallucinatin or the butt dyno was waaaay off but it spooled quicker and held 11 all the way to the line, it pulled so nice...man that extra 2-3 psi did good lol....man i cant w8 for exhaust....sorry to hijack hank, just had to share my happiness lol...

BTT lol

[WeldingHank]

no MBC or anything. no boost control at all. it usually doesn't make 1bar on the street. usually all i get it .8 bar and a slow fall to .65-ish. on the dyno it was a full 1 bar spike and a faily quick fall to .65.

[8ggalant]

nice thats pretty much the setup im looking @ getting...its nice to see i can expect numbers around that area....

also you said the afc didnt help...i was considering getting one (damn near free from a friend)...guess i should hold off on that lol

[WeldingHank]

it will definatly help if you can get about 2 hours of dyno/wideband time to tune it.

[WeldingHank]

oh, and remember how dee says most stock turbos don't last more than 3 months? well, i've had this swap done and put 10K on this car driving every day since i finished in the last week of august.

[8ggalant]

i think he may have meant the wont last that long w/ excessive boost (14psi or so and up)

yea i did plan on doing just taht (wideband/dyno)...when u puttin the t28 on??

[WeldingHank]

T28 goes on as soon as i gather up a few other parts. namley 3" dump tube, 550 injectors and Taka oil/coolant lines. then i'm all set to go. I have an SSAuto manifold, Z32 MAF and of course the T28 turbo. i can't wait and hope to get around 280-300WHP.

[8ggalant]

kool...im probly gonna stick w/ an sr t25 if i cant get a hookup on a 28...again..good numbers

[rico05]

Anyone willing to guess what a SR T25 would add to that?

Nice chart man. Very stable!

[8ggalant]

im gonna speculate around 10-20 @ the most

[WeldingHank]

i've seen CA's with SR T25's do 220WHP at 13psi on stock intercooler. i'd say your around there or a little more with the ARC sidemount.

[8ggalant]

NICE...can w8 to get mine lol

[rico05]

Damn. I have that much power? I need to get to a dyno and see. My goal was just 200rwhp for stage 1.

[wildacexxx]

didnt they tune the afc at the dyno?

[WeldingHank]

i tried to myself, but was pressed for time so i just tried to make the most safe tune i could so i wouldn't be blowing things up.

[wildacexxx]

how much do they charge at that dyno to do afc tunning? are they able to?

[float_6969]

You'll make more power if you can get those A/F ratio curves straightened out. You're all over the place with them. You really shouldn't need to run any richer than around 12:1. Other than that it looked great. That almost looks like a N/A dyno! Quickly spooling turbo's will do that...

[8ggalant]

thats what i was thinkin..i wonder what the numbers would have been w/ a lil lower of a afr between 12-14
