Turbonetics T3/T4 Turbo, Custom Tubular Turbo Manifold

He is running a tubular manifold. Interesting that even with the tubular mani, he is hitting peak tQ the fastest of the 3 charts.

But, if he has a small turbine wheel that will do it. Also, his TQ also falls off the quickest too. He has significantly less TQ up top than the rest though.

Yeah, that's why I asked for the specs on the turbine, as he is running a turbonetics turbine also. From my understanding (when racing) tQ is not going to matter as much when the car is up to speed. HP is going to take over in the top end range. tQ down low gets the car up and going. He has less of a linear effect than the other two kits (similar in the way my car hits it's power band....down low). A classic case of a "Peaky" turbo setup vs a "Linear" turbo setup. I've always been partial to the early "peaky" turbo when it comes to street performance.

You know that there is no such thing as HP right?

Yeah I know....It's all about the TOOOORRQUE baby!!!

I may be off completely, but doesn't the year of the tC's explain why the torque curves are different. I believe the 07+ tC's have a more flat torque curve after the changes made to the 2az where as the previous years the tq ramps up a lot at first then steadily falls off... make sense??? Nice numbers all and brandon, get that ish tuned!!!

p.s. could anyone point me in the direction of some electric cutoffs??

i think a lot of people have QTEC. i have the brand called "race ready performance" which i bought from jegs.

but ya, my dyno's prove there is a lot to be gained from opening the exhaust :D
