Dyno and track number from my 1.6T

99 1.6T Protege
Finally got the car to the Dyno Friday and the little 1.6L with a turbo put out 147.8 whp and 158.7lbs of torque at 6lbs of boost air temp was in the high 90s with 100% humidity at about 100feet above sea level. With just CAI and high flow exhaust was 87hp. Try tuning it to 8lbs of boost but the clutch couldn't take it so I need to get a heavier pressure plate for the clutch before running more boost. FYI with a universal adjustable fuel pressure regulator running about 42 psi I Dynod at 133whp then we installed the Vortec 12:1 FMU I got the 147.8whp. The track sucked because of the slipping clutch; first run was no good, second I got a 16.08 after babying it until third gear and then the slipping and burning started at full boost around 4500rpms.

SO if your turboing your Protg get the check valves right, get an Vortec FMU, and upgrade the clutch pressure plate or the boost you produce will be of no use!:D

Dyno result with the gains made from installing the Vortec 12:1 FMU before and after.

Sounds like good power! Time is slow tho...but that will be fixed w/ the new clutch.
