TurboTrix tunes a 550 whp Weightless White in Tampa!!!

As the subject says Mark and Junior from TurboTrix were in Tampa this weekend tuning cars (as well as mine!) and on Friday they tuned a White Evo from the Miami area and it made 550 WHP on pump/race mix!!!! Unreal... I don't have the specifics and that's what I am trying to find out. Does anyone know this person? What kind of mods are they running? Look out Miami!!!!

Oh BTW the TT guys are freakin cool as hell and my car is running so damn hard!!! Thanks Mark and Junior!

I was two cars after vletnguyen and they didn't even bother trying the dyno with my carsince it had been acting up for the last 2 cars. It had nothing to do with TT obviously as it was the Mastro Subaru dynopak there were using. TT was able to tune with the same dyno 5-6 cars between friday and Saturady before it broke that afternoon. I unfortunately did not get to get a dyno done, but the street tune was just as impressive. I will call Mastro next week and when the Dyno is up and running I will go back and get it done.

Turbotrix has consistently put up 345-350 in cars with the same level of mods.

Can you post dyno sheets. How is the lag? At what RPM in 3rd gear do you reach 20 psi?

Thanks

Are those Dynojet numbers?

If so, that seems to place that particular turbo a bit above a 3071, and just about on par with a GT35R where peak numbers are concerned.

It was done on a Dynopak which is a hud dyno (no rollers)

Kickass numbers for a budget turbo kit...looks like it's worth putting $$$ into the cam setup

And the same car on the same day will make the same numbers (or damn close) on an AWD Dynojet and on a Dynapak.

Hmmm, says $2850 depending on what all is included that is a great price!

What all did you get for your money?

Later,

Good numbers, would definately like to see a dyno sheet. That kind of power on that dyno is pretty sick considering it reads pretty low. You guys should have held it in Orlando, we have 2 AWD dynos and both are mustang dynos.

Are you the person that was up here a couple weeks ago with a silver STI and you raced a few people?
