haha I've been dying to go home but my wife still wanna stop somewhere and shop lol.. i hope my mani will be there, its todds package that im waiting for..

java09

oh then im going to say that you got the same thing from peak boost as me. all thats in that small box is your turbo which is real heavy, your wastegate in a box, and a bag with couplers, clamps, oil feed flage and oil pan bung. i got the mani, piping and a few other things in todds package. Hopefully todd contacts me today with a status on the rest of my kit because its going on 3 months now and i kinda just want to install already.. i mean thats not too much to ask right??!?!??! haha jk jk

...? I'm not concerned with numbers... concerned with the area BELOW the graph.

Trying to understand how drivable is this "252whp" for $6400. If it's peaky and the torque curve looks like bart simpson's hair, then it's a Fail. Peak numbers are great for bragging rights, but numbers don't win races.

So, without having to sift thru 50+ pages, is there a better graph that shows HP and TQ over RPM?

here is my dyno with the same kit with a larger turbo, and 3" dp.



i hope this helps.

brett you have a built motor dont you?

brett561tc

yeah

Enrique9876

what psi was that dyno pull at?

brett561tc

18. the psi is on the right side of the graph.

Enrique9876

ohhh thats whats up... nice numbers man.... and nice kit too.. (better than that zpi shiz)

i talked to peak boost and there should be another package arriving today for my turbo kit.. But its only my bov. Its not everything I need. they sai they will ship me my two slim fans, gold foil for under my hood, my air filter with clamp.. i just have to talk to todd to get the info for all the hard ware so they can ship me that as well.. so i guess the install planned for this weekend is busted and moved to hmmmmmmmmm..... cant say really....

Mr_Meaty

Thanks for posting that, Brett!
Yeah, my tq curve was kinda bouncy so my tuner didn't want to post it, but that's cause of his tuning, not the kit. I don't know WHY it's at MPH instead of RPM, and didn't notice when I picked it up. Now the shop is gone.

I'm planning on going to a new shop, getting retuned and turning up the boost to 8psi, then I'll post that up, but probably won't be till next spring depending on cash flow!

Now I definitely need to make a good checklist of things needed, I hope the thing from peakboost comes with everything though but with only 30lbs in the package i doubt its everything.. i hope to install next week, if everything is here..

java09

well yours was 30 mine was 25 so i guess your bov is in there. peak boost told me they only shipped me the list that todd had given them which doesnt make any sense to me.. now its going to take that much longer to get everything together.

maybe the bov but slim fans, gold foil and everyhting you mentioned and other small install hardware might be missing.. 2.5 months and counting I hope, i'll be done before it goes 3rd.

java09

i feel you.. but in the end all worth it. i am almost 100% sure that you will be receiving all the same things i did and missing the same too. i think they forgot to put my bov in my box and thats why it was shipped seperatly. i have been trying to call todd to get the information of exactly what i am missing and where im gonna get it from but no answer. im sure he will call me back soon with answers!

Mr_Meaty

which BOV did you all go with?

java09
