For those with MPINicks T25 Upgrade..

I'm not saying he doesn't. if/when I need a block I will most likely go to him. he just asked a question and I answered. that simple

Not to bash that dyno, but how is he making 30hp per psi when no one ever made that much of a jump on these cars? The average for our cars is 10-15hp per psi. That's the only thing fishy. He has a very nice setup and seems capable of a lot more power. A T3/T4 should be good to 450-500hp, so he has plenty of room to go once he fixes whatever issues he has to keep him from going higher in boost. Some things just don't add up.
 
thanks for the info i am sure I will look into it pretty soon tax time is around the corner and I must take care of my clutch first thing

Yeah its difficult to push 30hp per psi, even the best tunners here in PR havent done that. The 605whp fsde ran 40psi of boost, and the one that had 650, ran 30psi and nitrous.
The only cars Ive seen pushing 30whp per psi are the SRT4's

I personally think a T3/T4 should be good for a street and ocassional drag car. The 50trim can do 35psi while the rest can do only around 29-30psi.

I would use a T61 for drag only car, I think this one can go up to 45psi of boost.

I am skeptical myself, that is why I am waiting for proof. but it is a heads up. people are to quick to judge. they should reserve judgment till all proof is given. neither yay nor nay really

I agree with you, but there has been people to never really show proof and still advertise those high numbers. Either way that car is making some nice power and it has more potential.
 
There was a post asking at what psi I made 230 at, but I guess it's deleted. I made 228whp at 8psi in NJ.

Stage II Modern Performance Inc turbo kit. Modern Performance exhaust system. MPI tuner with two extra injectors. MPI 80mm mass air.
 
I Just put on the MPI reworked stage one turbo, ported exhaust mani and corksport s-pipe and I have got to say I love this F*ckin turbo it spools up so quick and creats so much tourqe that the car just takes off like no other. I do however have some exhaust leaks at the moment located around the mani to block and turbo to s-pipe but I plan to get that fixed in the next day or two and after that my car should finally be able to be tuned. after all this I hope to be a poster child for Nicks work because the guy really knows his s*** and the work he does is amazing!

^^^What Nick said. All the same mods in my signature except the J&S and WBO2.

Did you have these when you dynoed?

Not in NJ, I put them in after I dynoed there, so there was no J&S and the WBO2 came later as well. It was tuned off the stock O2 only.

I do not think people should post numbers if they do not back them up.
 
well he is a member who is rarely on so it might take him a while to post it. not saying yay nor nay just yet cause a lot of peopl like to jump the gun but I will give him the benefit of the doubt unless he gives too many excuses
 
My buddies friend lives in Utah and has the MPI T25 upgrade. In all honestly it does feel faster than stock, but nowhere near what the GT28RS feels like. I normally don't post, but I feel the stock MSP upgrade might not be the best of choices. The stock T25 flows something like 20-22#. I have seen and read alot of people up there boost on the stock turbo and have seal and bearing failure. This is because the turbo is being pushed past it's efficencey range. Easiest way to say it, it's spinning why to many RPM's. How many people with MSP's have lost there stock turbo and where running more than stock boost? Next issue I have problems with is the A/R of the compressor and turbine housings. Putting a larger wheel into a small housing doesn't make sense when you can get the GT28RS.
