same here...well i had the same...id hit boost about there with my qtp open, took longer with it closed and running through the stock axle back...

I wasn't talking about you directly. Saying some guys think they spool really fast. If memory serves me correctly, on the 16G I was at full boost by 2500rpms.

we took the head off and ive been driving around with 3 broken valves, a leaking headgasket, the head wasnt even torqued down properly.. all the clearances in the head were off! rob hope ur still not going to velocity factor.. and they messed up a nitrous hookup on a local tc. NO TC should see that shop ever. lol

B_Real45

Yeah I'm done with them too. Their labor prices are ridiculous.

I think I'm going to be doing some self-tuning today..

oh true, u still on a unichip?

B_Real45

The Unichip is sitting in the back-seat as a backup system.

I'm running the F/IC right now and trying to do some tuning myself. It's hard without someone else driving though.

lol how the heck are u driving and tuning at the same time thats insane.

hey does the comp stage 4 chatter at all? i have the same setup as u but god knows if its gonna hold up.

B_Real45

I'm doing it carefully... lol.

My laptop is on the passenger seat with the F/IC software running.. and I have a hand-held OBD-II scanner from Autozone that I'm watching as I drive.

travis. i knew you didnt mean me specifically. but most bigger turbos spool in the neighborhood of mine. 3k -4k. and it feels like an eternity. i just wish i had a turbo that didnt make full boost in first gear.

wow im rambling in my posts now. i should go to sleep o.o

anyways the point to my post is 16g's dont make the same power/psi as "larger" turbo

rhythmnsmoke

Maybe larger than a 57trim, but anything below that, it's going to be in the same ball park. Also keep in mine than when it comes to performance, the power margin gained over the 16G is then canceled out because it takes longer to spool it.

Hey travis off topic question, what color where you intercooler pipes before you did that red crinkel finish on them

Syldrin

they were "baller" gold.

Troys_tc

travis did you sand them down and then re-spray them and bake them, or just coated over the gold and baked them?
