I don't like the theories behind it, especially with out strengthening the stock box! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you get all of the power to the ground without wheel spin? How does traction control act now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 20x10's with 275's on the back which helps if I put 18's on I reckon it would have stuff all traction lol.. Traction control is not to bad now if you don't floor it from a stop start..

I am hoing for 420, I have seen a couple of guys hitting 420 to 430 the manifold is the real restriction.The 6 boost manifold with external gate would see more!My car made 380 with standard turbo rule of thumb is 30rwkw on the same boost which would hopefully mean my car would make 410rwkw at 17psi.I guess I am speculating the proof will be in the tune soon!!!My 2c Alf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djqc Member 291 Member For: 13y 24d Posted 08/11/11 05:43 AM Author Share Posted 08/11/11 05:43 AM Is there a before and after for the 6 boost manifold? Im sold if it will make a significant amount of power. Will the external gate be a big step up from the wastegate mod done to the stock turbine housing?I ask this, because my car is at the workshop now and if it will benifit from an external gate, I will go in that direction. Will a new turbine housing be needed? I can see how the cost will soon add up if a new turbine housing is needed + new dump + gate. Costly exercise!

Still the stock tire sizes and gets the power down nicely, or will do a nice power skid as required. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
