Thanks. my 2jz e30 was running the same gt35r and it produced 629hp but that engine wasnt stock

 

Fantastic figures. What is the spool like with the larger housing?

 

What would you say if I told you an MR2 got, a claimed, 720bhp from the same turbo on a 4cyl 3SGTE engine on vpower with 2 bar of boost? I only ask as I'm trying to get my head round it at the moment.

I have been told that they can run upto 700hp but mine started surging ubove 2 bar so i have bought a gt4094 to replace it:)

 

mine was with vpower

 

I cant see how you can get more power with less cc at the same boost unless your running nos or race fuel?

 

my 629hp was with v power and @ 2bar but that was the turbo at its limit. at 1.8bar it was making 600hp so thats where i left it.

This was my understanding of it all. I'm thinking that the dyno may be over reading by quite a margin. I'm waiting to be proved wrong though.

Pistonheads is your friend with the search - Dyno and Rapidgb ;)

 

I did do a couple of searches and was pretty sure that was the case. I have said in the thread I think the RR is suspect but I don't want to piss ALL over the guys figure. He has so much experience with the MR2 that I can't understand why he isn't suspect of the figure himself. Saying that, he hasn't replied since I questioned it so will wait and see.

 

I have no doubt the car is a monster but 720 is just a touch too much IMO.
