hybrids

[gambie]

how can you tell if you have hybrids or standard turbo`s on your car without taking them all apart

[jamesmark]

Hold a magnet to the blades I believe and if the magnet sticks then they could well be.

Unless you have UK spec turbos;)

[jamesmark]

True but since the man has a J-Spec, ;)

[gambie]

i only ask because when i last had it dyno`d it showed 383bhp at .8bar because i had a boost controller without the screen so could not adjust but have since fitted a greddy eo1 and am now at 1.2 bar

[jamesmark]

383bhp @ .8 bar is that possible? even on hybrids?

Hold a magnet to the blades I believe and if the magnet sticks then they could well be.It's only the turbine (exhaust side) that is ceramic though.

No

[gambie]

i have the print out everyone there was surprised including me Jody from interpro admits its rapid but as i am the first owner here from a private import i am not sure if there are any engine mods apart from what i have in my garage not even sure what size injectors i am running
am waiting for dave to recover so he can set it up correctly

[QUOTE=Jake;1549473]If they're as laggy as fook they're probably hybrids.

if that means there is a delay then they must be

[Jake]

Sorry but unless you've got a single turbo conversion under the bonnet there's no way you're making 380+ bhp at 0.8 bar.

Hang on though... Interpro you say? That's Interpro of the famous 33% drive train losses is it? Hmmm, that would make it what, 255rwhp?
Yeah that'll be it. Mystery solved.

0.8bar and 383bhp is a joke, you've been duped. A small single would struggle to get that.

Edit - or as Jake says, the interpro magic rolling road will be the reason!

[gambie]

it was done at bridgewater on a swz rolling road day

So have i;)

Hang on guys this was done at TSR RR?... Not Interpro, its nevr been on ours... They guys doing the RR didnt know how to dyno a Supra and Gambies first run was somewhere like 480! They had Standard NA Autos doing 280, My car was much faster yet only produced 222! (Its a Manual)

This car is quick, but i wouldnt say any quicker than the next BPU car... It is nice though...
