How capable are these turbos at surviving pressure above 18psi. Ive heard "hot air" etc...but i have a water injection system....i can clamp the signal and tune beyond the 18psi fuel cut but what other than hot air should i be concerned about? and do you think the water injection can cover that?

wont make a difference. you are out of the efficiency range of the turbo.

I thought that as well, however i was tuning on the weekend and did a run at 16 psi...made 290whp....when I did my last run however i took off the air filter and in my run the car went to 21psi (filter was blocked up) i lifted off the accelerator when i noticed we hit 21psi but when we looked at the dyno sheet it was at 310 just before i came off....there was way more rev to get (i lifted as soon as i noticed the 21psi). This is why i ask...because im intrigued by what happened....can you explain that....i havent found a compressor map for the ct20...if you have one can you post it for me? Id love to do this again and have more to say, but i just wanna know if the turbo is structurally capable of maintaining 20psi.... This post has been edited by Island_Racer: Mar 25, 2015 - 11:59 AM |
