GSX, GST lacking a turbo

[chris26969]

How much HP does a GSX/GST have if you were to take off the turbo. (1g, and 2g).

well the 1G N/T 4G63 I THINK have 140ish HP but this is the only form of the 4G63 that has ever came N/T. There is no real answer to this because no one in there right mind would take off the turbo on a turbocharged car.

If you remove a turbo, it is assumed you are no longer concerned with HP, so the question is redundant.

I would wager 125-130 at the crank due to low compression and more top end cams.

im surprised that no one has even tried to dyno a 2g GSX/GST with no turbo. My real question of the matter is how much hp do our engines put out before the turbo.

not much, our engines are BUILT for a turbo, designed around it.. you might aswell ask how well it runs with only 1 cam, or with 2 cylinders removed...

We're surprised that with your sleeves buckled up like that, you type that well with your nose.

You're possibly insane- a turbo engine is built to have that device attached much in the way an engine is meant to have a piston in each cylinder. It's pointless to waste the dyno time testing one without it. As mentioned, just the lack of compression will take the knees out from under it. I'd be surprised if it put out 100 that way.

I agree.


So what is the point of this question?

When my T25's shaft broke it felt like I had about 50hp...it was significantly slower than my girlfriend's '94 Mirage 1.5L automatic.

Unhook the cotter pin on your wasteggate, and dyno the car.
