Nice!

I've seen a couple of the other BP kit dynos and they manage to hold the power to redline even though the boost drops off. Might just be how the tuning is done. Can't wait to see your result. You're going to love it ;)

:tiphat:

The power fall is not from the drop in boost. My boost dropped on the top end, but I was still making power. I believe the drop on boost is because of the VVEL. Sasha can confirm that.

The power tapering off so early with this dyno is strictly due to the way the car is tuned. This is the firs dyno (out of about ten) where the power starts to fall off. VVEL is the reason boost falls off a bit, but as long as power is going up, there is nothing to worry about. This is straight from one of the best tuners out there. I think this tune is simply very conservative in the upper rpm's, and a bit aggressive to start with as the torque is high. Of course each tuner will have a different power/torque curve. It is like a signature, despite the fact that both engine and turbo kit are identical.

depends on who you bought it from,


Puckshaw im jealous of your build my man...... I so need to order this turbo, soon , soon i hope

Yeah I looked at one of the VSR dynos this shop tuned and it's similar in the upper rpms. I think he just dials it back a bit. As for the torque, it is high but comes on smooth which I feel is safe.

On another note, this car goes like a raped ape. I just took a friend for a spin and was giving it the beans on the highway. Accidentally spun 4th gear lol Damn this thing is fun but takes a little finesse to drive fast. I'm getting used to rolling into the throttle and putting the power down better. It's just so cold right now that traction is scarce. I thought I could hammer 4th without worrying about it but nope haha

Thanks my friend. Do it. Do it now.

The shop sent me the overlay of the turbo vs baseline. Looks like they used a different pull than the one I posted before but you get the idea. Quite a difference from my old setup lol

Awesome numbers! Can't wait until one of these threads is my build.

Thanks!

Good numbers. :tup:

Get your money back from GTM yet?

Thanks :tup:

No refund but my bank reimbursed me and is going after GTM.

So much for a "business with a brick and mortar facility with bona fide business hours, phone number, e-mail address and fax number" who "has been in business for 26 years".

It just goes to prove that it doesn't matter what the walls/exterior look like, but it does matter what is inside them.

Glad you got your money back, and hope nobody else goes through the same BS.

I'm actually really glad that GTM can't get their sh!t together because it led me to your kit. It's honestly the best thing that could have happened for me. It couldn't have worked out any better in the end. Well I guess I could have gotten my refund :rofl2:

Great numbers!
