jetute Donating Members 4,553 Member For: 20y 10m Gender: Male Location: brisbane Posted 03/07/08 11:08 AM Share Posted 03/07/08 11:08 AM We have been logging this car and as the dyno chart shows we are getting high intake temps due to maxing the turbo out therefore pulling timing at high rpm on 27psi approx 700rwhp the car draws a perfect powercurve I will post up one of the 600 pulp 20psi. Don't worry guys new turbo on order allready.so did this new turbo go on and what were the results? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbonetics was not born yesterday. Edited 05/07/08 04:31 AM by turbotrana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
