Re: Sealed the Deal on a Talon TSi AWD
Yeah, listen to JET. Back about a year ago I was gonna get one of those 57 trims and more than one person steered me away from it. Compare the compressor maps. The 50 trim has a much better map. Don't compare the 50 vs 57 numbers themselves. Naturally you'd think (57), well that must be a bigger and better turbo. Not so true. I bought a PTE 50 trim and I'm MORE than happy with it. I went 12.44 with it on Saturday at ONLY 19# of boost. Had I done my homework that day and troubleshot a problem, I should have easily been in the 11's with 25-26# of boost. By the way, that was on a stock 2g head, except for 272 cams. Only the rough casting was ported. Nothing was hogged out. Start with the smaller mods first like some that JET mentioned in the list. Don't get a big turbo and try to make it work with what you got. You'll be disgusted.
