Nah
Just wanted to compare notes with you guys, car is a 95 talon AWD
- Stock 90 6-bolt bottom
- 2g head
- MHI E3-16g (little bit of surge damage on cold side)
- Evo 3 manifold
- Ported 2g O2 housing
- Megan 3in DP with magnaflow highflow cat
- Ebay 3in catback
- VSRF front mount
- Crushed 1g BOV
- Stock air box, flex section eliminated with hardpipe, restrictive elbow taken off the end and restrictive connector to fender removed
- 1g cams
- ECMlink V3
- Walbro 255
So I built this thing on a budget (if you can tell) the turbo was a craigslist special... as such there's some minor surge damage on the compressor wheel... the tips of a few blades are bent slightly. Never the less it spools and holds boost fine, I was spiking to 26 and holding 24-25 steadily.
That all said I've never been very impressed with the performance, it pulls alright but I gotta say it's not much faster if at all than my old 91 awd talon with a supra side mount, a 14b at 20 lbs and the same injectors. Looking at the airflow kind of shows that, usually between 32 and 35 depending on weather which is ok but not great. I brought it to the local 1/8th and it did about what I expected based on my butt dyno, trapping in the high 81s at best.
It's now getting a MLS headgasket and a stock style compressor housing 68HTA. I had it together briefly but the machinist f***ed the valve job up. That said it was pushing like 22 psi on the wastegate, but barelly any better airflow... about 37 is what I saw. Now that may go up once I fix the valvejob but I don't expect much... so what do you guys think, is mid 30s about right at 24-25 psi on a E316g? Seems weak.... I thought people were trapping more like mid 80s (1/8th) in a stock 2g with these turbos in stock motors.
Log I have is some passes when it was at the 1/8th with the EVO3-16g
