my plans are hitting like 370 awhp

[skateloser2003]

hey i am kinda new here i lurk the site all the time so now i have my second dsm and ready to build it here it is:

1996 eagle talon tsi awd

6 bolt with 7 bolt head
evo III 16g
FMIC
Greddy turbo timer
Apexi SAFC
Apexi AVC-R
19' racing hart rims
Drilled and slotted rotors
Centerforce dual friction clutch
Evo 9 fuel pump re-wired
Greddy BOV
balance shaft elim

But the problem is that it has a blown head gasket so we pulled the motor yesterday and now the fun begins so my plans are hitting like 370 awhp with mods being.

3" exhaust, pocket logger, 550cc injectors, crower 272 cams, cam gears and thats all i got

tell me what you think and how i should go about doing it.

370 should be rather easy to hit. you've got the parts for it. ge tthe injectors, cams in and exhaust on and tune it. 350-370 is going to be maxing out those 550's though. so plan on upgrading to a better management system and 720 or larger injectors (

I'm wanting 850's or to run a dual setup with 8 stock injetors for good drivability and then enough fuel to hammer down on a big turbo when needed.

Ya, let me know when you hit 370awhp on an EIII16g.

I'm sorry but I don't see it happening. You'll need a bigger turbo imo. I'd get a smim for better flow as well. The reason I say that is because CanadianTSI posted up a dyno sheet earlier this year with a before and after with cams and smim, and it was amazing.

THe way i hear people talk i thought the EVO IIbig16g was good for 370 horse *shrugs* never ran one, but all the hype i hear about them "being lmost as good as a 20G" i figured tehy must flow rather well. I stick to Garret's myself, i know what interchanges and what don't on them and i know what almost all the compressor wheels are good for.

Sorry if i was mistaken about his turbo, I'm not too crazy about mitsu turbos anyway.

I'm with Steve. Hitting 370awhp on an EVOIII is a tall order. You really don't see those kind of numbers with a 16g very often. Just take a look at the dyno sheets on this site. Most are around 300whp give or take.

If 370whp is your goal, my vote is for a PTE 50-trim or similar.

Cams, race gas, a LOT of boost, and a lot of timing.

 

[GS-T_Newboost]

while doing the headgasket try to go back with som apr head studs and a mls headgasket. to reach 370 you will be running a good amount of boost so it good to be prepared

I would go with a 20g or 50 trim, because there is no way that a 16g can give you 370awhp. It can give you 370hp, but not 370awhp.

 

[BoostFrenzy]

You can make 370awhp on a E3 16G. You would need to have it ported and maybe clipped. You will also have to have almost every external mod known to man. AND a nice set of cams. Front mount, SMIM, the works. This guy I found on streetfire was making close to that and he only tuned with a SAFC and didn't even have a SMIM. He was appleyard777 on here. Don't know if he changed his profile since he got back to the DSMs.

Here are his vids of him beating on a GTO and a 996 Turbo, and a Ferrari

Thx guys yeah i might upgrade the turbo but i need good pricing on a kit (ie mani and turbo and j pipe) but i wasnt sure how a 50 trim would be on a somewhat dd

 

[turboglenn]

50 trim is fine on a DD. I run a 57 trim with a stage III exhaust wheel in a .62 AR housing and it's fine for me. A good tune helps, especially when you're only 8:1 CR like me. I think i burna little more gas having to rev higher to make "good power' in traffic, but it's by no means a PITA or hard to drive itin the city liek normal. On the highways it's great.

For your plans i would recomend a to4e housing with a 50 trim compressor and a Stage II turbine wheel with a .62 ar housing, you'll get better spool times and still be able to make over 400 HP when cranking up the boost for a blast down the strip
