Thread: New setup and build....Updated 5/25/12...723whp!!!!!!

It's all a learning curve. It's a 66mm btw:o

I thought that Synapse Syncronic 50mm gate I originally bought was big. But the 38mm gate has done well soo far. Im gonna see if i can position the gate tube to a 45 that way it will flow as good as it can and hopefully keep the creep a little lower. Either way im expecting it to creep to probably 25 lbs by 10k anyways. We will see how the turbo placement goes and go from there.

Thanks RB. I had issues with my 38mm and switch to the 44mm and never had any problems around 30psi. I'm planning to run higher boost on the red car so I went big as possible.

Yeah, worst case ill just add another 38mm gate w/ 1 bar spring in it. If i can keep the boost down under 25 lbs with the gate fully open I should be able to get traction in 1st and 2nd but if not i might need to bring it down to 20 lbs or so and i know for sure the single 38 isnt going to be able to keep this turbo at 20 lbs by 10k rpm Im sure it will creep up as soon as it spools so probably wont see anything less than 20 lbs when it spools.

Again something im gonna test out and have to test out on the track. Gonna be fun trying to get this car dialed in before the Convention.

OMG , u better be revving to 10k or you could count the blades while spinning, make sure she or no one doesnt stand infront it while spinning also =O , hope u dont regret a 6766 also , damn its big

how much was the mazworx kit?

I really can't believe you are running such a large turbo on a stock displacement engine, lol. I hope it all works out how you want it to but god damn that sucker is HUGE!

Yea I was thinking that too especially when you gonna run a maz sleeved block and staying at 86mm. The cost would be the same goin big bore so I dont see why not.

lol, people, Its really not that big of a turbo when you comapare things. Again our stock displacement motors are for the most part larger than many other makes of motors running this turbo. It should and will give me the powerband im looking for. Again most on here are not looking for a powerband from 7 to 10k rpm so thats your reasoning behind saying its too big. The VE is no slouch. Yeah honda motors are different and blah blah blah but the VE is not an inferior motor that should have no such turbo on it. A 2.0L VE is more than capable of spooling this turbo where im looking for it to spool it. lol.

The reasoning behind not going big bore, safety margin. As far as the bottom end of the motor is concerned its going to be bullet proof for what im looking to make with it. The bottom end will be 1500whp capable if I so desired 11k+ revs if i so desired. However my only concern with the entire motor at this point is gonna be the stock valves themselves. Ill have the proper springs and retainers and the smooth ramping n1 cams that are very easy on the valvetrain at high revs but the stock valves are still a concern and if something does happen, im more than likely gonna have to have the block bored. If i go 90mm im out an entire block if I drop a valve. Plain and simple. If i drop a valve on this motor, im out the piston and have to have it overbored. Plain and simple.

Not saying anything is gonna happen but its always a possibility. Im trying to make the most out of spending 1500 bucks on a block is all im saying.

Again when you see the numbers this thing puts out and the powerband of it, all the comments about its too big and why didnt you go big bore will all go away I gurantee it. Just wait and see. And if im wrong, then you can say I told you so but again you wont be dissapointed I gurantee it. I know what Im doing. Ive done my homework, ive seen personally what efficient turbo setups can do.

If your talking about the hall sensor kit, its $450. Requires some simple changes in the AEM EMS to run it. Pretty easy stuff.
