Finally after all this stuff with getting my car done, I organized a way for me to come back from school in VA to get to NJ for one weekend to get my car finished, dyno tuned, and inspected. Should be a busy weekend, but it starts out with a dyno tune on Saturday Sept. 11th which also happens to be my b-day so what a present it will be to be able to drive my car after about a month and a half of not driving it, and on top of that, the fact that i'll have lots of extra HP than i'm used to. Anyways, mod list below, and its going to be tuned by Acosta Motorsports, aka the guys with the 950hp rx8 that were at Rotorfest. Some of the mods are irrelevant like gauges and stuff, but just thought i'd list them.

- A'pexi Intake
- TurboXS BOV
- S-AFC I
- 4x720cc Injectors
- Stage II Hybrid Turbo (BNR)
- RB 3" Turboback
- Walbro 255
- DEFI Boost Gauge
- Autometer A/F Gauge

Oh and its all on an 89' TII with about 15k on a rebuild. Old turbo was pretty much fucked so mostly everything was replaced on it that needed it. I'll probably leave the boost where its at without raising it at all, but once I get a FMIC i'll probably go to maybe 13-14psi. Right now i've been told to expect like 7-9psi on this turbo without raising it at all.

So what do you think i'm looking at getting with this setup? Any hp/tq guesses? Closest person gets....hmm....well i'm poor so i'll just consider you a good guesser without giving you ****.

Nobody?

220-240rwhp depending on tuning and temps

snub disphenoid

hook it up to a wideband and you might see around 250rwhp. I dunno though, without a boost controller or FCD, I can't really say.

Ocelot

Why would an FCD matter for how much hp I get? I've got one anyways though. I might make myself a manual boost controller if I find its boosting really low. What do you guys think I could get at around 10-11psi?

cloead

Because without an FCD you can't boost above 8.8psi or whatever.. so that would restrict your hp output.

Ocelot

Yeah but woudn't it be pretty retarded to NOT have an FCD on and just let it hit fuel cut? Anyways, I have one, and thats not an issue.

so how much boost are you going to run? 7-9psi or 13-14?


i say 226whp@8psi
256whp@13psi


also, do you have an FMIC or the stock tmic?

Aesop Rock

i say 230-250whp

Ocelot

Stock TMIC, i'll probably run like 10-11psi on that, then 13-14psi when I get a FMIC.

Ocelot

Also, I know most mfg. ratings are BS, but on the rx7store they said on 14psi I think they got like 332rwhp. I'd assume they would have a FMIC to run 14psi, but do you think it was on race gas or something? Seems like 100hp difference between what you guys are telling me and what they get on race gas plus whatever else they have is a huge difference. I dunno, I guess i'll see what I get.

That was put down by Jerkracer. I've seen him post a couple times on here, but I saw the post over on NP. It was actually with the stock intercooler/ecu/injectors I believe. Obviously, he was running very lean. He had a set (4) of 720cc denso injectors that he was going to put in, and that's the last I've heard from him.

At 8-9 pounds I would expect 230-240rwhp on the stock intercooler. Time for a front mount/water injection/
