Thread: My nx2k dyno. Let me get some input from you guys.

Nice! Your on the same path as me. Just now getting my brand spank in new 18g back that I sold to my local friend. He let it sit and now it'll be mine again tom hopefully. These turbos really are beast! Didn't even see you had an 18g on there! You should be able to pull 450 out of the setup with e85. Those numbers are about on point with a 93 octane tune. So there's more in it even at 12psi.

There was a b16 Honda guy who tried to max his out and got somewhere around 440whp on pump gas at like 15psi. The turbo has a lot more in it with e85.

What jpipe are you running?

Also if your running coppers swap them out for iridiums that way you can run a bigger gap without issue. Coppers didn't like more then 28 iirc. They would blow out the spark any higher with that turbo

I am not sure which jpipe is on it. I have a gt28rs jpipe that I will be using when I redo the exhaust. I am not entirely sure what the best spark plugs or gap would be best. When it is all said and done, I would like to see around 420hp. The car still has power steering, A/C, and cruise control is going to be installed here soon.

Why did you go 44mm wastegate on that size turbo?

99 Sr20de....is that a RollerRocker or just a low port?

Also when I say Jpipe i wasnt asking what motor it was from. Just curious if it was an OEM one. If its oem your probably loosing 15whp right there because of flow. But your not gonna be able to run a proper one that flows right without removing the AC. This turbo likes an intake manifold and an exhaust manifold that flow.

Greddy 18G on Fully built B16! - Honda-Tech
Not sure if this dude bored out his b16 or not after. But he made 350whp on it with the stock 1.6 and wasnt close to 20psi. Then he went on to make 430whp at like 17psi with some more upgrades. I had been watching him since the begining basically lol. Check his threads there. I made 350whp 325tq at 20psi with a bunch of issues on a 9.0:1 Det with S4's. The turbo should definately be able to hit 430-450whp with e85 on a stock VE. Its funny...if you look around at some more of Gio's post you would seriously be shoked at what E85, external gate, and just the stock T25 can do. I had alot of fun with that t25 setup! Im gonna see what itll do with a VE and E85.

Everybody who ask about this turbo online always gets responses like "that turbo sucks its only good to 300whp". The smart ones dont even post numbers cause they know what it is. I think your probably the first to play with E85 and this turbo. Most people just upgrade. But if they felt the power band of this turbo on a 2.0 and actually knew what it could do alot of people would stay t2 and keep it simple.

E85, for my own clarification, are we referring to ethanol? Pump gas?

375 on 12psi :0 was this on e85? List your whole setup please. A dyno sheet would be great! That's almost unbelievable!

E85 is 85 percent enthanol, 15 percent unleaded gasoline.

I will be running more than 20psi when its all said and done. At the current psi is really is not needed, but once I bump it up, I will need it.
