Greddy Turbo Kit Dyno part 2
Most of you saw my numbers from the first dyno session. I lost some 19wtq which was dissapointing but the hp numbers are much better from the 116whp.
Here are the specs:
-Greddy bolt on turbo kit
-stock modified intake
-stock injectors
-stock fuel pump
-stock fuel rail
AFR for this dyno was 12.9:1
-Magnaflow catback exhaust (one of the true catbacks available)
-0.5 bar of boost
Emange tuning
141.80whp / 130.34wtq
Overall I am happy with the results. It proves that you dont need to throw a TON of parts in there to make the power. It just takes some patience and tuning. I'll be putting in a high flow cat then dynoing again. Dyno was done on our Dynojet 224x dynometer.

So even with the emanage the ECU still tries to adjust? I had an apexi safc II and that thing didn't cut it against the xb's ECU , I'm glad I went with a haltech even though it cost more...hopefully since the haltech is stand-alone, I shouldn't have a problem...hated unplugging the EFI fuse...it was embarrassing!

Hey rollhard, I'm at 135 hp with the default boost setting on the Greddy Turbo Kit. I thought it would be a bit higher though since I do have an intercooler, upgraded fuel system, and stand alone ecu. Do you know if the default boost is set at 5 or 6 psi? My tuning shop said it was set at 5psi. But I'd like to get it up as high as I can while keeping it within what the pistons and other engine components can manage, only thing is, I guess if I increase the psi, I have to also retune it too, which isn't cheap. Still 135hp is still loads of fun!
p.s. I forgot to mention that since I'm in Texas, and it's blistering hot over here, I'm guessing that will effect the max hp. The weather here is at least in the mid-90s! I miss California!

Going with larger or better flowing fuel components wont give you more power unless you turn the boost up. I suggest you get a boost gauge too so you will know how much boost you are running all the time. The preset boost is about .5 bar or around 6.5-7psi. Atleast, that is what I am getting without adjusting the boost actuator on the greddy turbo.

Yeah, since the boost is not controlled eclectronicly, it only goes by the actuator pressure. The actuator rod may not be the same EXACT setting on all the turbo kits so Im sure they are all close enough to run anywhere from 5.5-7psi though.

I've been reading alot of mini cooper forums lately just for fun and alot of the british guys are swapping our engines into the old mini coopers but what I found relevant was the fact that with standalone engine management which they didn't say which brand they were using they have been pushing 14 pounds to the stock internals with no problems. and It seems sensible that since alot of the 1.6 liter honda guys are pushing boost in this range and their internals are not forged that the 1NZ-FE engine should be able to handle it. my main concern would be the head gasket which you can buy an upgraded one online. I think emanage is what is limiting the potential on the cars when I do mine I am going to talk to the mini cooper guys and find out what standalone they are using because they are really putting down some impressive whp numbers. the top guy I read a post changed the pistons and connecting rods and is slamming 20 pounds to the engine and it has held together for 63,000 miles. I know this is very extreme but they are making well over 200whp so I'm thinking emanage has to be the reason everyone is getting stuck around the 140 range. The other problem to standolones is most of them aren't street legal so what do I know but I just thought I would throw out what I read thought it might help.

i wouldnt mind a standalone if it had ABS for my car haha having no trac and no stability is fine with me just give me my ABS..........could you provide a link for us or something to atleast have some proof of what you are saying..........not tryin to say that your lyin or anything but we need some kind of evidence of this..........

Rollhard, when I drove my car today, I noticed the maximum boost was about 6 psi on mine. I wonder what kind of power I would be looking at if I increased that to 8-9psi?
