I'm lookin at one of those right now, but its a bad one. we had to change it out for a new one on a truck it was leaking lots of oil

[eatinup_pony_racer]

your car sounds bad-ass

[darkelvis]

what is the A/R on that?

[legacy-user-33]

Holy shit..I remember seeing one of those in auto class two years ago.

[King Ricer]

that's big, are you going to be able to spool it with out alot of lag?

[JOHNDEERE]

no. boost somewhere in the 4000 range

[amicheze]

just getting closer and closer to worlds fastest spyder....

[PSI2HI]

Ditch the internal gate.

I second that... especially on a turbo of that size.

[SmitEvo]

ya i didnt order it with internal gate

[Guest]

Definitely wont spool as fast as the 14b but will make way more power.

[Pony_Racer]

cant wait to see it on the street again

[adog]

Trying to catch Dave?

[out there]

going for 500hp on pump gas? what kind of wastegate will you be running? 40mm? 44? atmospheric dump or plumbed back into the main exhaust?

[92TSIpos]

I bet 44mm, and what difference does it make if he runs recirculated or atmospheric? No power gains.

[PSiedTSi]

if he dumps it wont bust creep and what not...no kaboom

[out there]

boost creep is still possible, that's why he would need a very large wastegate to run a lower psi, but running +/-30psi wouldn't require a very large one.
i don't know what some of you guys are babbling about with it taking forever to spool, it does have full spool (to low 20s) by 3800-4000

I don't think people should comment on big turbos when they haven't had anything bigger than a 14b;) I ran a 38mm gate on my car and it was fine down to 15 psi, never tried anything lower than that. I am pretty sure my turbo was bigger than this one, or close in size. It was at 35psi most of the time though:) Will be interesting to see this turbo run, that is if Jim ever gets his car going!
