Nice numbers, what a beast. I'd love to see the same pull on E85, at that much boost it'd have to be mid 400's... assuming it didn't scatter drivetrain bits all over the room.
Me too. I'll fab up a 2.5" hotside pipe, and a 3" inlet pipe before I go.
Its really tight on space though. The compressor housing has to be clocked in just the right way, which leaves not much room between the compressor outlet and the subframe. I may try and trim the shelf if I have the turbo out anytime soon.
450 on E is not even a question, but I am genuinely curious if you'll hit the 2" piping choke point past 400 like we're all theorizing
Most of the gains on E85 don't come from ingesting more air, they come from using that air more efficiently. More timing means more combustion energy turned into mechanical energy, and burning more Hs instead of Cs means that you get more energy per input O2 molecule. So at the same MAP target, I wouldn't expect the 2.0" vs 2.5" intake piping to matter.
understood and agreed, but that wasn't my point.
we all know he will gain power, but if certain parts are going to choke real hard, his hp per psi and/or hp per degree timing ratio is gonna change from pressures spiking and heat building from restriction
