I'm proud of your attempt Fae. Thanks for posting the dyno info. I feel for you. I agree, S256 would be a nice turbo to try.

So let me get this straight: you guys are both thinking that a SMALLER turbo will make MORE power?

Or is Fae finally settling for "MEDIOCRITY" and wanting more under the curve? LOL

Fae if you're going to continue on in your quest for ALLOFIT you need an IM. Stop using the retarded logic "it aint dropping off so its fine". Its not fine. That stupid hogged out POS won't cut it for the power levels you're shooting for. Also you're going to need head work. And cams.
I know you know all of this, but I'm saying it anyway, cause it took us nearly a year to get you to actually dyno.

Needs to be put on another set of rollers. That dyno is garbage.

While i think FM's dyno is hideously optimistic, there's no way i should have made only 15wtq less than you.

I don't understand why anyone is suggesting changing parts. Before anything is done, the car needs to get to a competent dyno and actually make realistic pulls. The turbo shouldn't make full boost at redline, the street vids clearly show it spools fine. That dyno is jank and there are multiple people on here who can confirm it.

Real dyno, then decide what needs to be done. Changing anything based off that last experience at the dyno is completely ridiculous.

So you're saying the dyno is completely and utterly not even remotely reading right?

347whp @36psi on a S366? Come on...

On a dyno that is clearly having load/operator issues and having members here say they have gone back to back days on that same dyno and made less power at more boost.

My answer is yes. I would not use that dyno as judgement for my next move with the car, if it were mine. I would go to different dyno, one that will load properly, and make a few pulls that can actually tell me something about the power level/curve.

I mean hell, compare it to your own setup previously:

25psi on a 3071 on a crappy log and other restrictions, and you made 400.
nope, on THIS dyno he made 299 with the 3071
in like, 2010.

A few numbers were off, but in your favor. The drivetrain eats a percent of power and not just "30hp". Don't ask me why or how, I just know that's what it seems to do.

You also stated you'd throw 500rwhp on the dyno sheet. Now your back tracking by using math. Take a compliment when its handed to you and quit wearing sandles to a shop. I'm surprised they let you walk in with them.

That is even worse. Faeflora looks up to Soviet and Soviet is setting a bad example... Bad Russia.

Don't give up yet. That dyno is junk. Find another dyno and do some pulls. You shouldn't be getting your maximum torque at 6000+ RPM. Remember torque and HP are related. If you get your max torque at 4500-5000RPM like you should, then you will see much better numbers for max HP. Something is definitely not right with the dyno.

serious suggestion:
sell hydra, replace with reverent-built ms3 that is designed to run all your whizbangs. allow brain and I to tune it and re-dyno at york automotive for ultimate wins.
