[DiscreetSpeed]

(attn)hey ya'll just wanted to say i been zooming at 18psi for a little over a day. this car is fast as shiat.
for those having doubt about the cars potential id suggest putting in some 104 and crank the boost.(glare)

 

[KyRaceFan]

do you have cats?
104 leaded or unleaded?

If its leaded.. your cats are hating life right now.. in fact they hate it so much they probably are dead.

 

[DiscreetSpeed]

unleaded my friend and yes i have cats, haha for at least half this week.

 

[unwrittenLaw]

damn 18psi!...that's cool..but just be careful..

 

[scoobiesport]

At what psi is the turbo past its thermal efficency?

 

[low_psi]

nice maurice. very nice

 

[mp3moose]

[Newf]

Boom!

 

[bored132]

most t-25's are only efficient to about 16psi.

 

[low_psi]

indeed, they will spin up to ~24psi though. i'd make sure you're not boosting 18 too long....

 

[boostisgood]

Boom!

Give it till tuesday Newf.

 

[ZMN BY U]

Wow that's alot of boost man you must have alot of balls to run that much boost i have been up to 12psi 1 time on the street and race at 10 and spiking to 12. do you have stock plugs and what are your mods? hope to hear from you dude on this. just be carefull is there any smoke when you shift from your car? i know i have some when i shift black smoke that is. car runs fine when cold bad when its hot outside. Since it has cooled off it runs much better. Lately its been spiking to 12psi and drops dramaticlly to 8-9psi.


have fun see ya (msporange

At what psi is the turbo past its thermal efficency?

15-16psi.

I've still yet to find the actual numbers on this turbo, other than its a garret ball bearing t25.
Im guessing it flows around 325cfm.
Anyone know anything else about it?

 

[Matthew]

Boom!

i was thinkin the same thing.

 

[charles]

What other mods have you done?

 

[ForceFed]

NO WAY ON THE BOOM!
I have been running 12-15PSI for months now with not a prob.
If I could I'd run it higher on race gas at the track but the dam "CUT" comes into play.
I say go for it as long as there is no detonation and you are not flashed and you are on race gas.
If you think it is fast with the cats still in place,WAIT TILL YOU TAKE UM OFF!
DAMN FAST!

You think it's better to go without flash for boost above 12 psi? I'm stock now, no flash yet, but getting mad hesitation. Should I not get flashed if I'm running higher boost in the future? I've been gettin' mixed reviews. I'd love to get the flash now to eliminate the hesitation, but not sure what's best for the big plan (12-14 psi & lotsa goodies)

Well the way I see it,LOOK AT MY 1/4 TIMES and tell me what you think???I got the hesitation but upping the boost helped with it,but I would rather have a car that was faster with a hesitation then a slower car that is not easily as moddabble(I know thats not a word but oh well )
This is just my opinion (an educated one at that)
