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

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


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.

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.

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 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'

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