Dick in TN

I had my shop send my original turbos to FVD in Germany as well as my ECU for upgrades...FVD upgraded the stock K16's to K16/24's. I also ordered their cams and sport muffler.
My shop changed the clutch to the Sach performance clutch. I kept the dual mass flywheel. I had FVD custom program my ECU for 93 octane gasoline and the turbos, cams and sport muffler.

Has anyone gotten a dyno after one of these stock turbo mods?

Dyno curves on FVD.net

approx 400whp on a Mustang AWD dyno

Corrected HP? Wheel or at the engine with some assumption of drivetrain loss?

400 wheel HP as measured on a Mustang AWD dyno corrected to temp and humidity and elevation. Depending on what you consider the driveline losses are in the 993tt drivetrain, it could be close to 500 engine HP

HP and torque graphs are on fvd.net

Not specifically to Dick in TN, but do we know what the ability of the factory ECU can tune for? meaning if an OEM + turbo is used can it adapt to that or tuning is needed?

eclou

very unlikely able to adapt enough to run well. IIRC I had to swap out the fuel pressure regulator to a higher pressure unit as well.

I upgraded my 993 T to factory K24 turbos. new diverter valves and a high pressure fuel regulator. The difference in power and torque is amazing. Yes, there is more turbo lag with the stock cats and new sport FVD mufflers, but not that much and with the FVD programmed ECU, the car is so much fun to drive. I've had this mod now for almost ten years with really no problems. It simply feels so much more power (seat of the pants) that makes the car even more fun to drive. I would recommend it. Pat
