The first dyno mash is ready. Apologies for the rather crude resolution.
Stealing this idea from refresh951. The few of us running 16V Turbo engines deserve our own thread. So keep em coming. Remember to post specs. I'll go first.
Spec
-3.0 S2, stock bore and stroke
-JE 8.0:1 compression (probably slightly higher due to decked block twice)
-Dry sleeves
-Piston squirters from 968.
-H profile conn. rods
-Custom intake (made by an idiot(not me) and a piece of crap. Will be changed)
-Lightly ported (done by the same idiot that made the intake, probably more harm than good done)
-3" exhaust
-Link G4+ Storm
-Comp CT4X-6467T4 AR .81
-Chris White 60-2 trigger.
-LS1 coils
-Sequential injection
Dyno done on waste gate spring pressure of 0.8 Bar. Torque peak is because of slight overboost
KSira, that engine has a lot of torque even off boost...do you have any positive manifold pressure at 2000rpm or is it basically breathing atmospheric there? Nice power without pushing much boost!
Spec
-3.0 S2, stock bore and stroke
-Wiseco 8.5:1 compression
-Dry sleeves
-Standard conrods at the moment (Turbo forged) But Pauter on the bench
-Custom intake as seen on many pics

There is some positive manifold pressure, at low RPM. The attached log shows a 2. gear pull with change to 3. gear up to 5000rpm. Notice that it takes almos a second to build full boost after the gear change. The plan was to change to a smaller turbo, but looking at the NA dynos of an S2, the high torque peak 4k RPM seems to be the characteristic of the engine, and I'm not sure if a smaller turbo will gain much in spool up.

Duke: Looking at the charts, your engine built boost much earlier. How much would you guess where due to the variocam? Just curious how much would you guess a smaller exhaust like T4 0.63AR compared to a T4 0.81 would help spool?
