So we won't be seeming this thing on the road at all this year?
LOL, i don't blame people for thinking that, but it will be on the road for the spring cruise unless something catastrophic happens which I don't envision.
My initial plans are for a "true" 650whp at hopefully 25-26psi, not just a VD plot that says it, I think i am close with the EF4 but hard to say for sure.
Then if the setup is working well, I plan to shoot for 700whp pending my fuel pump scenario.
The T4 Twinscroll 6266 has a 1.0A/R and a few other bigger ones yet to try down the road too.
I wasn't offended, I'm just saying I know it takes some time.
I was just ribbing you, but well this 600whp beast has been together and I've only seen it do work 1 night in the last few years.
That new setup sounds bomb, Tom likes that housing, but I'm curious if its too small for the top end.
Has anyone else done TS T4 with this motor? Seems like it spools turbos fast as hell already.
I am planning for sub 4k spool on this setup. The guy running a t4 TS 6466 is spooled by low 4k range on his with a 2.0L, I think the smaller A/R, smaller turbo and displacement will really spin this up fast. We will see though.
I am not trying to break a power record, that is why I went with the 6266 for now to keep myself from trying to do 900+ (for now lol).

The last autoX I went too I was so board that I left after only doing half my runs.

That sucks. I've loved the 3 I went on.
Murlo that will be a crazy long powerband if does that. I'm interested in the top end on your car, it seems like these X's just keep on making power at the top of the RPM range.

Cruises = 5-6 good solid hours of awesome driving, racing, eating, BSing, then get wasted and have awesome stories to tell.
Auto-X = stand there and watch other people drive for 6 hours, drive for 8 minutes, stand there for 6 more hours, drive for 8 minutes. Go home sunburned.

Sums it up pretty nicely!

Sub 4k spool to 25psi on a 2.2L with a 6266? Geebus those motors must have been made with gypsy tears, I think my 3.0L would barely do that.

I will be happy with anything as good as my EF4 honestly, and I think that is possibly.
This guys t4 TS 6466 on a 2.0L has similar spool to my EF4

So I have to imagine all the factors I listed will get me to 4k spool at least.

With a good mix of lurking around listing to the endless stream of inane drivel based on internet forum group-think vs empirical data.

Sorry to crap up your thread, Dave, I am sure you're car will posses all the right statistics when you are done with it.

Yeah looks like 25psi around 4150rpm or so. Should be a pretty sick power band.
I'm also an advocate for Divided T4 setups, so thumbs up from me on going that route. You could try one of those QSV's for even quicker spool!
