Eyesore Racing dyno charts
So, I finally had the time to put all our dyno charts in one place so we could show off the long, slow, multi-year development of the Frankenmiata's hideous boosting system.
When we first crossed 190 hp, we thought we should get some kind of medal for the most power ever made with a 5 psi B6. Then we realized the boost was creeping to something more like 7 psi. Still, pretty healthy for low boost.
Many gory deets in the story: http://www.motoiq.com/magazine_artic...-revealed.aspx
but I was wondering, what kind of numbers have you guys put down at or below 7 psi?

P.S. if you don't know what I mean by hideous, I mean this:

This time was no different. We went straight to our load test, which consists of pulling 5th gear to redline, pulling the engine down to 4000 rpm with the dyno brake, and then pulling back to redline again.

We did some serious travelling this year to secure the championship. We towed to Colorado ($750 in towing gas) and shipped the car to Florida ($2150 in shipping charges). We're flat broke now...

I think you are right that people are running closer to the edge than they think.

1.6L.
That was with a log manifold, T3 turbo (60 trim), 2.5" DP, "High-Flow" Cat, and a restrictive 2.25" exhaust feeding dual 2" outlets.
AFM still in place, stock injectors with an FMU, 8* static timing.
That was running wastegate right around 6-7psi. My first dyno ever. With the exhaust I had it took around 12psi to see 200psi.

this still surprises the hell out of me.
9.5 psi aint much at all. I saw his timing map when we were both on the adap, it looked conservative as hell too.
where does all the power come from?
vvt? .5 more compression? tubular mani?
I mean I can see those accounting for some power increase for sure, but that low of a boost target and that high of a number on a low reading dyno?

Check out the difference between our cars at 3000 rpm. That's a log and a T3 right there!
