My Car Just Shipped ... It is Single Turbo Time For Me

Laguna Seca Blue · 05-01-2012, 10:26 PM

^That's a joke, right? It looks more like some oily liquid with a white plastic cover

My PROcede is still in the mail, but i'm already dreaming about this single turbo

. You're a lucky man FBIS. Shiv, can I please be your first oversea's customer? You might have a small PR problem when i accidentally flip my car again, but don't worry, i'll blame it on the alignment and my poor driving skills.

Lol...looks like I'm going to Asia in August to custom tune a few single turbo set ups. We will just add you to the list

I take it the trip to Bali is work related? I have always wondered how many tons of sand 644rwhp can displace per minute

Possibly meeting with the group that came on with their fully built n54?

^I seriously hope not. It'd be nice to get another take on the single turbo tuning.

Huge lag? Have you ever driven a I6 with a 62 wheel? On top of that, I have a billet wheel. This will spool incredibly fast.

Ohhh, ok. The 62 with billet seems like it should be full boost by 3200-3300 rpms. That is a big powerband. The 58 Shiv is testing on the auto is full by 2800 rpm. That is quick and big power on both.

Yes I was joking. I was looking around for something interesting laying around

OpenFlash · 05-02-2012, 03:04 PM

FWIW, WRXs deal poorly with upgraded turbos because they have several feet of runner length pre-turbo. One of the downsides of a flat engine using a single turbo. Which means the exhaust gases lose a lot of heat and velocity before they enter the turbine which kills turbo response. The exact opposite holds true in an Evo which closely couples the single turbo to the engine (very short runners). So if you take the same turbo and test it in both the WRX and the EVO, the WRX will spool much slower. It's actually quite painful

zeenon53 · 05-02-2012, 03:15 PM

Is that some sort of a flex section going to the wastegate? Looks interesting, can't wait to read your review!

It's a flex section for the wastegate dump pipe merging with the exhaust.

Sick isn't it?

Those pictures look terrible, I can't believe how disgusting it looks.

So I'll do you a favor, just have your car shipped to my house and then they can send mine to shivs and you can let them try again on my car. Like car swap.

I'm too jealous to even say any nice words, lol. Looks awesome man, I can't imagine how pumped you are.
