Most WHP on Pump Gas 93/94 Octane
#16
^ Good ideas/suggestions. If say after the next 2 weeks we have a good idea of what the most common range of turbos make on pump lets go ahead and make another one with race gas, then meth, and be done with it, for now I am only interested in pump gas numbers.
To me the numbers that your car puts down on straight ol' pump gas is the most important, as I cannot live with paying 8 bucks a gallon for whatever race gas, and do not want to run the risk of grenading a motor due to a faulty alcohol injection setup.
TurboSpoolinIns- I did not throw the 40 or 42 or 45R on there because if you have one of those turbos and are running it on pump gas you either deserve to be shot or will never run it on pump gas again, if somebody does post up there numbers with those turbo's I will add it.
Scorke
p.s. this thread is not limited to the turbos on the inital post, any snail you want as long as you have the info that is nec. to help out is fine. I would just like to have a good resource for what the maximum potential for each of these turbo's is, on pump, on our cars.

^ You should remove your middle paragraph there about why you dont like racegas/injection because it is just personal opinion. I see what you're saying, but this thread is going to turn into a why racegas/injection systems aren't bad for your car.
And this is to good of a thread to ruin.

I'm patiently awaiting a 2.4L setup with ported head, 272 cams, 880 injectors, BB 50 trim and a laundry list of other goodies that I'll be tuning on 93 octane. If this thread is still alive in a month or so, I'll be sure to post up

I completely agree with what he said, and thats part of why this thread is important to alot of people. There are enough of us with the same concerns, who want to know the potential of these cars on straight pump gas.
We are not here to argue the merits of race gas or meth/alky.

Get that car to the local Dynojet you mentioned.

Yeah again, that sort of information is irrelevant, being that I believe that any tuner should really be able achieve similar results given the same setup unless they are truely incompetent.
One thing that I have noticed already and am hoping it's not due to anything besides good tuning/parts/a combination of things is lots of these results are coming from one particular dyno...

Another guy who dyno'd, the same day at both dyno's with me, put down 300whp on both.
