come on over buddy, i have a guest room, and the weather is beautiful in phoenix this time a year.. i will go to work every day, and u can just sit and work on my car all day!

you'll be able to make 170rwhp with 1.8 injectors and a 12:1 FMU on the stock FP. At least I was able to.

adbradley 01-02-2007 01:43 PM

ok, so even if im running this smaller turbo? as long as it is capible of getting up to 8 psi and i can keep the a/f ratio right.. and keep it from spark knockin it should be able to put out 170?

Braineack 01-02-2007 01:49 PM

it's really all in the math. 80psi of fuel and 265cc injectors = 198BHP

adbradley 01-02-2007 01:58 PM

yeah but you have to be getting enough air in there to mix with all that fuel, doesnt the cfm capability of the turbo factor in there somewhere?

Braineack 01-02-2007 02:12 PM

well, regardless if you are reaching 170rwhp at 4psi or 8psi, the injectors will be capable of supplying enough fuel.

magnamx-5 01-02-2007 03:39 PM

true that.

adbradley 01-02-2007 04:02 PM

ok.. so since my compressor is smaller than say the 15g turbo that comes with the greddy.. whats the real world differance.. will it just get to a point and stop making boost? like get up to psi, and not be able to do any more.. from what i can tell by looking at the map it should be at like 60 percent efficency at 6500rpm 8psi.... this sound about right.. ??

magnamx-5 01-02-2007 04:05 PM

You will blow hotter air sooner like bripad. This is a trade off for your low end boost response at 230<- whp it shouldnt be alot of difference but the extra head room of the compressor does help not heat the air as much. For example my 16g had as much flow potential at 8 psi as the 15c at 15 psi but i only used so much of it.

adbradley 01-02-2007 04:07 PM

so basicaly i will be pushin in hotter air at the same psi as the greddy compressor is, but should still be able to get the same flow as it does?

magnamx-5 01-02-2007 04:13 PM

yeah as far as what your motor is ussing with crazzy ported heads and high dollar ignition shit you might use most of the available flow but i doubt it matter alot, just try to get it as cool as you can without bogging it on the low end.

adbradley 01-02-2007 04:31 PM

yeah, i got no crazy ported heads or high dollar ignition... The way i see it, if the 2.0 engine on the eclipse ran with this turbo, why wouldnt my 1.6??

magnamx-5 01-02-2007 09:22 PM

yeah youll be fine. stop worrying you might just surprise your self/us i did. :bigtu:

adbradley 01-02-2007 09:24 PM
