I'm getting about 37lb/min on 91 octane at 21psi. Maxed out (racegas/alky), the stocker can reach about 42lb/min. The LT turbo is rated at 47lb/min, but you'll need to pump 35psi to see that.

 

as soon as i get a chance, i will be sending my car up there to have this turbo put on and tuned. just need to get ahold of them and with my schedule i wont have time to call till friday. but this will be done in the next month or so, if dave and his brother have the time to install and tune it.

 

I just checked buschurs website it says 49lbs for the new LT turbo

 

thats very close to a 50trim...interesting...

 

kinda like reinventing the wheel???

 

More like inventing a wheel with the proper offset that bolts right on rather than using just any old generic wheel and adding spacers and fender flares to make it fit . . . .

 

How come the flow rates keep going up.. 43 47 now 49? which is it....

 

How much of an upgrade would this be from my WR turbo? All parts listed in my signature below...... Maybe an option for me this summer when I want to spend the cash on some Buschur parts.

 

yea....I would be a dick too if I had a 50 trim kit + full supporting mods and ran a 12.2@116...

anyway can't wait for this turbo...

 

what do you mean by this? please explain.

If you are mocking my 12.2 run, its was my first run out with that set up.... I'm new to AWD drag racing.....

once I get more seat time I'm sure I'll pull better times....

How fast have you run? do you even own an EVO?

 

You mean like the Ford Pinto? Or the Ford Crown Victoria? Etc, etc.

 

You'll definitely improve your times with practice but just to give you an idea, guys in our region are running 11.6-11.8 @ 118mph with the stock turbo and alky. What concerns me with your 50 trim is your trap speed not your ET. 116 is pretty low for that setup. It will get better though, I assume...

 

Going 10's would not be a problem on the stock head and stock shortblock with this turbo. What is going to be a problem is getting the rest of the combination right and getting someone who can actually drive well enough to pull it off. The cylinder head on the EVO flows enough stock to support this turbo without a problem. The shortblock will add a minimal amount of power to the build, if any. You do the shortblock for durability not power.

The datalogs I have for the turbo are in milivolts that have to be converted to lbs/min. The laboratory test meter we did the flow testing with, I no longer have, it is at FP now. I do not have the charts either. FP just sent me an IM saying on his very very mildly modified EVO he just say 46 lbs/min.

 

I wish someone would have this turbo installed and report back right now with a basic stage 4 car and then all of this bs would stop....16 pages later.....
