I think the SR16 will perform better at mid-range. Def be interesting to see how they compare with this turbo. I am doing the dyno test tomorrow. Remember, this dyno reads a bit lower than dynojet....

BTW my timing is retarded a bit right now for safety. I am not at the "line" I drew on the cap/dizzy.

So I presume I am at 12-13* base right now. Going to time it tomorrow.

spool is about 5500-6000rpm. It feels awesome once you are passed that point. The power after 8k rpm is intense, and sends me bouncing the rev limiter. I can't "feel" when to shift like before. I w...

turbo is on. runs hard. 10 psi. Its quick.

glad you got the turbo vadim. you'll love it.

Nice setup. is that a bottom mount manifold? I want to see that all hooked up. Been interested in bottom mount big turbo setups and how they clear with the block.

Tial bov?

the vabnd they make for it fits a 3" pipe without issues or any modification. It is designed to be used on 2.5 or 3" downpipes.

trust me, I wanted to retain my 3" vband. In fact, I specifically or...

Ya shipping was $35 of that. The vband was $24 and the clamp was $15. Plus shipping it was around there.

Ya expensive. I didn't see the need for a stainless vband. Even with stainless, the exhaust...

I cleaned Utah out of p11 and b15 gear boxes. There are very very few still around in our state, and people are keeping them away from me ;)

I broke a lot of them, but finding the QG18 stacks was ...

The 6 speed gearbox, mated to a p12 bellhousing for the SR engine. Allows the RS6 trans to work on your SR. There are modifications needed. And it isn't cheap. but the transmission is stronger by q...

Ok I just overnighted a 2.5" mild steel vband from ATP with clamp. Cost $80 but it will be here tomorrow.

I am going to take the sentra to Element tomorrow after I receive the flange and we are go...

Didn't Dave Coleman state that lower compression spools turbo faster? Could have sworn he did. My 9.3 compression motor spooled slower on the dyno though. By 2-300rpm compared to the 8.5:1.

Has an...

I went from 9.3:1 to 8.5:1 and I didn't notice any difference. On the lower compression pistons I was able to run more boost and make more power on 91 pump. I didn't notice any loss of response or ...

I'd rock that sticker in a heartbeat.

If gap on plugs is too small it can cause some issues like this. But it doesn't seem like that is the issue. Worth checking out.

I've seen the way you drive, you got a heavy foot... you'll blow yourself to pieces.

SR18 suck. Get a G20 motor or something. They are cheap enough at the junk yard. The SR18 has smaller pistons and smaller valves iirc. I'm no expert. I would stick with SR20.

Also look how far the surge line is pushed up. That would explain why the twinscroll pushes the turbo into surge so much. The fast spool on big boost causes some surge in the mid range. Low boost i...

Elevation sucks. It puts the compressor into a higher PR on the map, which hurt efficiency slightly. But it makes it harder to push the limits of the turbo as well because it is harder to keep the ...

Hmmm this is a tough one. I am interested what more overlap will do on these cams NA. Post asap!

Ya I'll agree that was a bit too far. Especially since the Blowjobs wouldn't be in advance.

Was that too far?

Ya, that was too far.

that looks like a ton of fun man. Good luck with that! I love how the graph jumps 80whp in 200rpm. Looks intense.

Don't most stock-ish VEs make around 165-170whp? I made 165whp on my VE and made 1...

I think the 57 trim will do alright if it is the one I'm thinking about. What size wheels does it have?

Actually, Vadim has shown interest in the turbo. So he has first dibs.

Ya I don't know if the fins really do anything, but the turbo came with a .060" restrictor fitting on it.

I went to the shop to see if they had any 2.5" Vband stuff, but they did not :(

I will ha...
