[QUOTE=Kaoself;845239]I'm told there's approximately 200rpm difference in spool. I'm sure the 1.5xtr is the better choice for a built motor.[/QUOTE]

200rpm is over and done with in the blink of an eye, I wouldn't be choosing turbos based on that.

[QUOTE=dazdavies;845255]Yeah Maximum's dyno was always a "low reader" until mine went on it after which it suddenly became a "high reader" overnight.



Had it done on the Hub dyno at Tokyo MS too. Both were identical at 605whp. Go figure.



People get far too focused on dyno numbers. It's what it does on the tarmac that counts.[/QUOTE]



Interesting....my 2016 WRX rolled off the dyno and goddam shits it in. Yeah I'm not talking anything about 605 bhp but I'm only a lonely daily driver wanting a nice car with some shizzle under its bonnet.

I could not give an accurate assessment - because I simply don't know engines; especially at those numbers! - but to say that it went from a wrx to a 'FML WRX!' is about right. MM's dyno was pretty conservative for mine.

As to the tarmac - cannot comment and will never be able to - it's a daily :)

Peace,
Josh

This. Spools is all well and good, but horse power alwayw wins.

WHP not BHP. Daz's car would be about 700 or 800 BHP.

Yeah around 700bhp I reckon.

Mine is a daily too.

Hence why the Dom 1.5. Most people won't notice or care that is spools 200rpm later than the 20g; and will care more about the extra 20kw up top on their graph.

Hows it going with sorting out the misfire, Jay?

VUSSUTE 25-02-2017 12:44 AM

I dont know. I got a polite message that said "leave them alone to sort it out"
I was hounding them too much apparently. Sorry i had just spent 30k on a build!

Im at the mercy of racetorque mate lol

Shite man...I thought you guys that did 'big horsepower machines' were track based and pretty much did your runs and then loaded onto a flatbed for the cruise home...but those numbers as a daily is goddam awesome man [emoji869] love it...I'm still learning engines but putting that around them sort of numbers is great for what my line of work used to be when I did work...'fixing roads' [emoji23]

Goddam strip the asphalt off the road like paint thinner....unreal man [emoji106]
