Um not to be a d!ck but that turbo is not going to net you 600 WHP. MAX flow on the efficiency island for that turbo is 60 lb/min. That equates to roughly 600 Crank HP. Of course thats at the limit of it efficiency so I would expect something in the range of 500-550 to the wheels with good tuning, cams, etc..

Max airflow for this unit is right about 60 lb/min of flow. On a car with 100% or better Ve this would equate to roughly 600 Crank Hp. Minus 15% drivetrain loss is 510. Adding cams and timing etc can alter that number but over 600 I sincerely doubt...

Oh **** man -
I've seen this thread before but I didn't realize it was you who's car it was.
This sucks to hear about your motor, I assume this is why you needed a ride to Stillen day lol?
Mike
PS you sure you won't be needing the emanage ultimate for your rebuild?

Hmm... I missed the post saying that the motor blew. Sorry to hear that.
It IS interesting that the only two cars I can think of with this kit have blown motors. Something's not right here...

Who was the other person? I only know of Damen with this kit and I guess he is still running strong over 1 yr with this kit. The kit didn't blow my motor it was either the tune or something already wrong with my car when boost was applied. I decided to use the EU instead of the Unichip that comes with the kit because almost anyone can use it. I'm not blaming the EU because it is only as good as person using it to tune. The car ran fine before taking it to the tuner under no boost with the exception of my overheating problem that was solved. The problem happened when boost was applied so it's a question of if my car was already damaged from drag racing all the time or if the tuner didn't know what he was doing with the EU.
