Just curious if anyone has any HP numbers that they can post running the PTE 57-trim DBB turbo.

After getting one myself, I hadn't really had a chance to get to the dyno before developing some serious rod-knock. I was running 24-25 psi, but never felt like I had it tuned perfectly. It did pull VERY strong at times in cold weather, but I'm wondering what real-world numbers people are seeing with this turbo.

Once my rebuild is complete and the new clutch and everything is broken-in, I do plan to head to the dyno myself. Eventually I would like to see 500 hp, so if I need to upgrade to a better pump-gas turbo next year, then so be it.

Thanks.
 
I know that this isn't a very popular turbo, but nobody has taken one to the dyno? Hmmmm.

With water injection I am able to run 25 psi with no knock. I'm just hoping that I will be able to put down 450 hp once my rebuild is done. I haven't had any compressor surge to speak of with the turbo either.

Just looking for some real-world numbers that anyone has achieved with the turbo. Please respond if you have have this turbo and have some dyno numbers. Thanks!
