Thread: Repairing the Turbo Beast! UPDATED W/MORE PICS

anxiously waiting...

well here is the first impression of the S15 dual bb turbo, The turbo sounds freakin awesome, the spool on this thing is amazing, the car just wants to go. Im only running wastegate pressure right now also and i will tell you what at 11psi of boost this thing hauls, im not pushing it too hard because i only have my fuel pressure set to 3 bar when the program is for 4 bar, i need a fuel pressure guage before i can put the afpr back on. But i tell you man, the power this thing is making at only 11psi is crazy. The when punched in 1st or 2nd will just bounce the rev limiter like crazy all while still pulling fairly well, i hit third and the speedo just jumps to 80mph falls back slightly then goes to 90mph all why still squeeling the tires along the way. I would say right now at 11 psi its quite a bit faster than the t25 was at 18psi spike and holding 12-13psi, this turbo does not drop off power at all. it pulls soo consistant to redline, if i punch it in 3rd again it just breaks the tires slightly and will squeel them till about 85 all while pulling maliciously all the way to 90 without hesitation. i think with the little more added fuel to bring the a/f where its supposed to be it would probably pick up some power even at this same boost level. i wont up it past this boost until i get the 520cc injectors in. Its already gonna make more power than what the 370's can handle especially since it holds power all the way to redline.

The torque is crazy also, the car literally just wants to go every time im partial throttle. I will get some pics later of the car, i cleaned it all up and my evo hood vent is on the way and should be here this week. I will keep this thread updated. Cant wait to get fuel all setup the way i want it and see what this thing does at 20psi on some 100 octane race gas.

sounds awesome man. Get some new vids for sure!

It does sound awesome from your description. I saw the VID you posted in Coheed's thread I believe awhile back and it pulled hard then. Can't wait to see what it does now. Then you plan on bumping the boost to 20psi on 100 octane? Gotta get a VID bro!

i hope our daughter wasn't in the car when all this crap was happening.. you have some explaining to do..

^^^ lol, good thing my wife don't come on here!!

wow

i use teh avenir manifold with my turbo, i just grind the lil hump on the block, takes 2 seconds, but i like ur set up, you should go external gate!

lol, neways yeah its actually only boosting 9psi, it quickly spikes 11psi for a split second and then holds 9psi solid, it definetly feels really good, i got on it this morning on the way to work when it was low 70's out and man it pulls rediculously hard all the way to redline, 20-80mph came up in well under 5 seconds even with the quick shift to 3rd. Its nuts.

Wait until you turn the boost up!!! You really start to miss that pull of the T25 down low at low boost on a bigger turbo. But when you turn the boost up all that will go away quickly! You also sound like you need some new tires or something lol. I spin 1st, a lil of second or alot depending on how quick I shift and then its all grip from there at my wastegates 14.5psi. We need Videos! Mine is coming once gas prices drop a lil here.
