Just finished up (sort of) and dyno'd my friend Marks car so he could make it to the Mesquite meet last weekend. Quick build list: Stock , very worn out cylinder head with a mushroomed #3 exhaust valve. Stock mechanical cam, also worn out. Custom individual throttle body intake , using TWM DCOE throttle bodies. SMB header. 40MM Turbosmart wastegate. Comp Turbo CT4-6265. AEM Series 2 6050 "Honda box" Mighty Max distributor with AEM 24-1 trigger disk . The comparison dyno graph 'small 16g vs big turbo at 10.5 psi wm' had the same setup except with a stock intercooler , stock exhaust manifold and a small 16g turbo. When I was dynoing the car Friday night, I mistakenly thought that the power similar at the lower boost levels, but looking at the dyno graphs again today, at 5200 rpm there is a gain of 30 hp with the Comp turbo at the same boost level. Also, the ecu mapping between these two runs is the same. small 16g vs big turbo at 10.5 psi http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc103/vprtech/Marks%20Starion/small16gvsbigturboat105psiwm.jpg 17 PSI http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc103/vprtech/Marks%20Starion/17PSIboostbigturbowm.jpg 17 PSI vs 20.5 PSI with break up at higher boost http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc103/vprtech/Marks%20Starion/17PSIvs205withpowerdropoffboostbigturbowm.jpg
