i need more POWERRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!, Lagos was right...it becomes addictive. Options

[easternpiro1]

i just wanted to say that the consensus on boost being addictive is right... i thought i could fight it, but i just need "a little bit more"

most of you have seen the dyno sheet, and i was wondering what should i do from here? I will be getting a 3" custom downpipe and exhaust hopefully before the 17th (going to the track) but what should be next?

maybe some engine management?

mod to the turbo and IC? (or new ones?)

my goal is to get at least 40 or 60 more whp and I KNOW i will be satisfied then.

im open too suggestions! what have you guys done? or would do?

yeah it has 550s but doesnt it need them just because of the air flow capacity of the ct20b, aggressive cam and tuning?
if Toyota could of gotten away with a smaller injector they probably would have used it, right? thats what i thought at least.
I thought the 550s were used the same percentage as the 440s on a gen2,
that you could only add so much power before upping injector size, safc to add fuel or upping fuel pressure.
Im not to familiar with the gen4 characteristics though.
if you only want 40 or so thats only about 5 more pounds of boost if the turbo isnt already above its efficiency range.
what did you put down for numbers again eastern?

i put down according to the dynojet 266whp, looking for about 300-315whp

after you get your clutch fixed and broken in, and do your exhaust work, go back to the dyno. make sure you go to a dynojet again and get some real runs in that also log your a/f ratio from a wideband gauge. then you would have a better idea of where to go next.

the beauty of owning a turbo car, is that making more power on it is pretty easy. exhaust alone should give you around 20hp. then on top of that, you MIGHT be able to run a little more boost and get close to meeting your goal. for your motor, i would set your goal at around 290. thats very fast, and possible on your turbo
