It was a joke. I expected more TQ, but if the turbo is coming on that late, it is self-explanatory.

THAT is a lot of dyno pulls!!! You are lucky it did not break.

Nice numbers again bud!

Mr_Meaty

Naw, if it was a turbo honda, it would be 542hp and 271tq!

jaxtcracer

That makes 2 of us....I had never seen the tC stock intake off of the car until a few weeks ago....cant believe how small the T.B. opening is.

i can see what paul is saying about the torque on all the other high Hp tC's i've seen either higher or close to same Tq #'s as to Hp #'s but like everyone has said Great numbers and i would lOve to see the vid.... and if the other turbo was to laggy being it was bigger why did you decide to change out. doesn't bigger mean bigger numbers sometimes?

jaxtcracer

yeah the peak numbers might be bigger but the overall powerband would be a lot shorter and less flexible

Not necessarily....as I said the bottleneck appeared to be stock the intake, and stock TB, it got to a point where it did not matter how much boost was thrown at it, it just would not make anymore power. There is also a limit to the effective range on engine parts too, I am sure the cams and stuff have there limitations, and if you go too big on the turbo you will be out of the range of the components before you even spool up. I also do not believe the SPA turbo was bigger, I dont think it was a ball bearing unit, I will check the specs though.

Get it to the track

blown_xa

look u got people hating on u already!! Do somthing awsome and yet still people pick.. that's SL i guess. Congrats 500 plus whp is nutz. And you are still putting down 2x the torque as the people here critiquing you are.

mikescion

i wasn't pickin on him I was saying its kick ___. I was helping explain why Paul said something about the torque...

rhythmnsmoke

If it didn't break, I guess they built it right huh?

It was my understanding also, that once you past the 500whp mark on the 2az, that the tQ no longer matches the HP. That the HP actually starts to rise significantly over the tQ numbers. Could be wrong, but seeing as how there aren't that many "privately" owned 500+whp tC's running around on SL, it's kinda hard to put 100% into that statement. But, that has been my understanding thus far.
