MAP SST (Sleeper Series Turbo) Installed and tested
#304
Ok so you guys advertised this was a stock 9 frame turbo correct?? SO is it OEM or NOT? You still have not said anything about that,you just said the above statement. Which is funny because it says that it has been through rigorous testing.What does that mean? Just on the turbo itself because obvioously you guys didnt even have a graph for a while. Does that mean you developed a turbo on a whim? I would never advertise something without real world testing. Basically you guys assumed it would put down good results when actually installed.You didnt know it required a stiffer spring untill it was on a customer car so that right there tell everyone the r&d was horrible. How could you have not put it on a car before you put it for sale?!

Wow. I can't beleive people are getting so pissy over this. This thread is a customers review of a turbo that he is testing out for MAP. That means that this customer along with a few others including myself are actually a part of the R&D process needed before this turbo is actually launched to the public. This thing isn't even released yet and you guys are already raising hell. Wait till there are final results before you make judgement. Also I noticed that there were people comparing the 2 dyno sheets above. Although they are from the same car they are 2 diffrent rynos. Even though they are both Dynojets they are not going to read exactly alike. Just be patient and wait till the testing of these is completed before trash talking. Once a few of these are installed and the final tunes on them are done then we will all have a better idea where this turbo stands.
$1199.99 shipped Did I mention that they are currently in stock and ready to ship?

listen guys,im not knocking your product,its just frustrating when i read page upon page with little or no results.If i was not interested in your product then i wouldnt care.The fact is that i am currently in the market for a stock frame turbo so i am just trying to gather as much info about the available choices as possible. Maybe next time instead of having a person chosen to test your product post a thread you guys should do it yourself to ensure the proper info is given an a more helpful manner. Sorry if i came off as someone who doesent want you to succeed.If this turbo turns out to be right for me i would buy it in a heartbeat. Im just big on results and getting things right the first time.we all know how bad it can be if you buy something with out researching and it turns out to be something you didnt want or need.

They've announced the turbo early for a reason. For people like you, so you don't go and buy that FP Green HTA for more money and then have to see everyone else getting the SST instead.
You gotta understand though that MAP is doing what they can. These guys aren't lazy, just VERY busy.

We will find out soon enough. I just put a 2.3 in my car & have an SST that FedEx says will be here tomorrow. I wanted something that would spool very quick so I was looking at these smaller turbos like the SST, BBK, & Green. I'm not sure it will make power all the way to 8k on a 2.3 but I wanted to try it out and see how a smaller turbo on a 2.3 would do. Should make for a great street car. Only one way to find out.
