Yep..another one.

[Kevin 1G Drummer]

I threw an EvoIII 16g on my car last spring and decided to keep the external wastegate run off the o2 housing the same way I had my GT3076 set up. I'm planning on bringing it to Shane this spring for a tune on E-fuel so I'll see what I can wring it out for. I'm hoping for anywhere between 375 and 40, and as much boost as the turbo can handle and still be somewhat efficient.

What numbers did you see with the big 16g at that level? Idk if I'll push the evo 3 16g that far, but would be nice to have an idea. And def let me know when you sell those injectors.

I never really did get a clean dyno session in. But at MAP I put down 370whp on the small 16g. Still not on the best of a tune do to a failing bov.

I haven't decided whether to go with an external wastegate set up or not. I'm not trying to get a ton on my plate, cause the more that gets added to my list, less likely I have money to do it.

Also have to ask where you got your headlights (kevin1gdrummer), I know it's OT, so if you could just pm me with where ya got um, or just reply to the thread I made. Mark had said something about you having blackhousings, and I'm looking for a set.

Thats promising, I hope to have numbers like that at db on an evo 3 16g.

Those are also FWD numbers...



95tsi on here has a 2.3 stroker, 272's, SMIM, E-85, FMIC, pretty much the works, and makes 347hp and 361tq @ DB Just for a comparison

[Constant_Project21]

I know they're fwd numbers, and thats also at MAP on a small 16g. I'm not looking for giant numbers. Honestly 300+hp at db is more than fine with me. I'm not out to make a horsepower monster, just a fun street car, that I can take to the track everyonce in a while.

Hmm...so as I stated earlier in this thread, if the right deal on a bigger turbo came along..that I'd go bigger. Well, I got a deal I couldn't in my right mind pass up. Ill post up some pics when I get it, just sent my paypal payment :)

[Constant_Project21]

So my new turbo got sent out yesterday. Bought it needing a rebuild, so got it dirt cheap. It's an PTE scm6152e, set up for an external gate. So I'm heading in quite a different direction. I'm not dead set on using it, and since my car isn't gonna get touched until spring, I got some time to mull it over. Ordering a set of super low mile Rc 1200cc injectors (again, no way I'm paying full price haha) tomorrow, or Friday. Gonna be ditching the safc as well, and I'm still waiting to find out when ecmlink lite is coming out. Once that's out, I'll swoop that up. Have an EPROM somewhere (hopefully, recently went missing), so well on my way to the set up I want.

Best part is, haven't really spent any money so far. Parts I've been getting rid of, have managed to fund all the new stuff. So I'm keeping with my budget build goal. Still need to find some 3kgt vr4 brackets for the 1g...*cough chim55117 cough*.

[goodhart]

You should just have Shane burn you a chip with the Eprom if you're working on a bit of a budget. I'm probably going to go with an Evo 8 ECU, just have to find someone to make a harness for me...

[Constant_Project21]

I didn't really have a good experience with the last chip I had used. I had one for my 560's and 16g, and my car just didn't seem to run right (used a maf-t as well). Idk couldve been something else wrong with the car, guess I could give it a shot.
Ecmlink lite is like $325, which doesn't hurt my feelings too bad. Either way shane will do some sort of tune.
