Best Way To Get 300rwkw?

[groper]

ok, looks I started a completely different topic here... can we get back on track please?

what is the deal with the turbo swing valve, what is the prob/limitation with the stock item?

how can we control boost, options?

[groper]

oh, and whats the best bang for $$$ for an intercooler kit...

you can get 305rwkw without actuator mods, check the thread here

monza cooler is cheap and people are happy with them.

Process west also do a really nice cooler for under 1k

cobraV8, the reason I said phoon will crank more power is because he said he is after a slightly used car. I assumed, slightly used might mean older then April 06, depending on the deal he can get.. if the T has the same rods as the F6 then it wouldn't matter, but if he goes an earlier model the F6 will get more power.

Anyways, back on topic. Here's my list of mods and power.

I got 304rwkw with these mods

968 injectors

4inch cat

k&n panel + CAI

Edit tune

Fuel Pump

ASE intercooler (standard pipe work)

clutch

The deal is lack of air flow through the wastegate at higher boost. As you may know, most cars seem to boost higher in the midrange then the boost tapers down a few psi as the revs increase.

the prob is, IF you want to run 15psi at 6000 rpm, the boost will spike to around 17psi at 3500sih rpm then come down to 15 due to the air not beeing able to flow through the wastegate and thus staying inside the exhaust housing making the turbo continue to spool up.

If you increase the size of the wastegates opening it will flow enough air to regulate 15psi, thus giving you a nice even 15psi from low rpm to redline.

Alot of poeple are happy to see 15psi then see it drop to 12 or 13 as that will get them to 300kws. others like to see 15 at redline but not 17 or 18 in the midrange as its just to high for a stock motor.

only mods to the exhaust was the cat? what about the dump and the rest?

nice... seems like it wouldnt cost a great deal to get there then? how was your power curve, nice and fat or kinda peaky?

another thing im after is 300+rwkw, but achieved on low boost, lets say around 12psi, 15 max. how do I do that?

and to settle the argument, I will be buying either NEW BF II xr6 (with the phoon rods) or an 06-05 phoon used (to freakin pricey new)

that's a good easy to read explanation rapid.

thanks, I see now... one more thing, ive asked it in another thread, what wrong with the stock actuator and upping the boost?

[JimmyXR6T04]

Only exhaust mods was the cat. I removed centre muffler later for the sound, but that didn't affect anything.

here's my dyno sheet. Boost hits hard, then tapers back in the higher rev range. I still have the stock valve springs though. Still, it's great to drive.

Good luck with it all

as of april 06 all T's share the same rods and valve springs as the phoon motors so guessing it is a level playing field if you have one of these cars
