I have to pipe in here, I was able to meet John Vitesse at Road Atlanta at the last PCA DE. I was very impressed by him. He is a very nice and knowledgable man about the cars, he knows turbos like crazy! I am going to switch my Guru II software for Vitesse's new stuff.

4re308, it was good meeting you as well. I think you have a gorgeous 951!! Were you driving the 308 in Roswell yesterday?

Yo all...

Steve... congrats on the dyno chart. Pretty much as I expected, and very close to what I attained here in Los Angeles.

I think Steve should go with an Innovative Turbo dual BB center section, and a .70 a/r turbine housing, with the same wheel. With that, he could have the same spool up, but probably another 15RWHP - 20RWHP at the same boost level. The .58 is too small in my opinion and is why the power is rolling off before 7000rpms.

I've played around quite a bit with different turbos on the car, and the above recommendation is probably the best turbo for that car with the mods on that car. With the .58 turbine housing, Steve's giving up quite a bit of top end power (which is ok for him since he runs on tighter tracks than we do here in LA).

Anyway... good job on the chips Vitesse, good job on the top end Milledge, and good job on the rest SFR.

BTW, Tim is doing a bitchen individual throttle body setup for thte 951 for me right now. That and a bigger intercooler would make a considerable difference on that car as well. I'll post some pics when it's done.

TonyG, glad to see your back. You bought another 951? What are your plans?

Tony. I think I have enough power (for now....). My goal is to have 400ft/tq at 18psi, and make it spool faster (3500rpm instead 4000rpm max boost).That way, I would have more usable torque, for the Mt-Tremblant and Watkin's Glen track.

Steven/Edman

Let me know when your going to back Zekes. I'm just dying to dyno my new Vitesse AFM chips...
BTW - do they provide AFR/boost maps during the dyno run?

RPG951S. I will be going back to Zeke's on the 24th of November, most likely, to dyno a 2003 Mustang Cobra. Yes they do supply the wide band read out.

Wormhole. I should be back to Watkin's next June, depending on the schedual. I was there last June 24th.
