Silverbullet951,

When my engine is finished and broken in I will post the numbers from the dyno.

When talking to Majestic on choices, I asked for one that whould be able to support 425 RWHP @ 18 psi with the right combo.

The calculations I made said you will be close to your goals at 6500 RPM 20# boost with a 2.82 engine...but that is really determined by how well the engine breaths.

There are also a ton of variables that need to be set to calculate the HP ,air temp, intercooler eff., turbo eff., VE etc., a change in any of these results in a change in the HP. You will have to Dyno the beast to see what you get. Looking forward to a posting on your results!

Thanks for the info Beab951

Torque on this puppy should be in the 500 lb area also, so even close to these numbers should be fun for a daily driver

How is the Aussie wide band o2 project going? I have one on order and just received the o2 sensor from NAPA.

I have it built but haven't had the time to test it. It went together with little effort and I REALLY need to get this wrapped up. I also have the parts to make a logger for the O2 vs RPMs vs injector duty cycle. I am sure it will do the job and will be cheap to build, just need for work to back off for a little bit, no more travel and the grass to stop growing a foot every week.

I was trying to figure out what I have the 60 trim or the 60-1. I was looking at the Turbonetics price sheet and what do I find? Part# 20573 Compressor Housing TO4E/60-1, 3" inlet just as listed on my invoice, but I wonder what the difference is between 60trim and 60/1?

I am also thinking about a change to a #10 Hot before installing this new turbo.

Man, reading Corkey Bell's book puts plenty of thoughts in your head.

I dont think we dump enough exhaust, even with 2.8liters?!?! I dont think you'd even see positive pressure until 3500rpm's ? [quote]Originally posted by David Floyd:

That's for sure!
