I have the DIY EBC but not installed yet, and the wastegate actuator is the 7-11 psi adjustable one from BEGi. I installed the turbo yesterday and did 40 or so miles of VEAL, and this is what I ended up with. Next step is to make up an exhaust... Open DP is obnoxious...

I still have some beautifying to do, but it's all there... It was a BEGi S3 kit I got used off of a 96. Only things I needed to figure out was how to mount the braided coolant lines, and I had to rig a hanger to hold the end of the DP away from the bottom of the body since the flange doesn't line up to my current exhaust.

An update. Have since installed the DIY EBC and added a few feet of 2.5" straight pipe and a turn down.

2500 .1
2750 2.7
3000 4.0
3250 5.1
3500 6.5
3750 8.1
4000 9.5
4250 10.9

Huge improvements with EBC... this is in open loop boost control, haven't set up closed loop yet.

Turbo was recently mounted, i've disconected EBC for boost creeping troubleshoot. Testing wastegate on site with a compressor: @7psi starts opening, @15psi is fully opened, no visible interference. Wastegate pre-loaded, just first half turn that doesn't aloud me to swing it by hand.

I'm on spark base map and only managed to tune fuel for now. Log print:





Can't figure why the boost fluctuation/rise up top, any sugestion?

This is a comparison of my Begi T25/T28 churbo vs. my Garrett GT2554R

Engine: Stock 1.6L (203,000)
Turbo: Begi T25/T28 churbo VS Garrett GT2554R
Manifold: Begi directed pulses
Downpipe Size/Style: Begi modded to full 2.5"
Exhaust Size: 2.5"
Exhaust Components: Catless, Dynomax Race Bullet, minimal bends
Intercooler Core Size: 27" x 7.5" x 2.5"
Intake Manifold: Stock
Headwork: Stock
Engine Management: MS2PnP (Dyno Tuned)
Other Spoolin' Helpers/Hurters: EBC, LS Truck Coils, E85, 7lb Flywheel
Trans & Rear End Ratio: 5-speed, 3.9
Rear tire size: 225/45/15

FOURTH GEAR PULL: (WOT just before 2000 on flat, both pulls)

RPM PSI/PSI (Churbo/GT2554R)
2100 0.9/2.9
2200 1.3/3.2
2300 1.5/3.7
2400 1.5/4.2
2500 1.6/4.7

As you could probably guess, the car is considerably more fun with the 54R.

Couple posts up i already posted mine incl in the datasheet. But i see those are 5th gear pulls

I cant do it anymore because my car is totaled


I dont have any 4th gear pulls but got some 3th gear pulls. But it should spool faster in 4th gear. This was all with a cheap stainless steel exhaust not made for turbo but for N/A engine


THIRTH GEAR PULL

RPM PSI
1950 1.5
2105 3.0
2355 5.0
2496 6.8
2841 10.4

I'm talking about a log. Because anyone can say anything but it's difficult to fudge up a log.

Check this out:

My stock miata with a gt40r turbo strapped to it

THIRTH GEAR PULL

RPM PSI
1950 11.5
2105 23.0
2355 35.0
2496 46.8
2841 50.9

pretty impressive isn't it?

Well then. Your td04 does not spool faster then, does it?

Also, since when does 6.8=10?

Finally, my monster 1.6 spools a t3/04 to 18 at 1800 rpm. Well, it would in 4th, if I hadn't never made it.

850 rpm = 8.6
1800 = 12.2
2800 = 38.645, for the transmission

18psi, see

Damn, I type too slow.
