your exhaust is hurting you.
your manifold is mediocre.
your turbo is mediocre.
Change those 3 and retune. Demand 400whp.

Re: (IntegracinGSR)
I only have 2.5 exhaust I can't believe that 1/4 inch would make that much difference. I also have a smaller turbo I believe. Maybe it is your tuner.

air fuel at 11.8 to 12.5 made barely any difference and a couple degrees more timing didn t help much
from the dyno sheet doe anyone thing something is leaking?

Re: (4cylinder)
Could be a boost leak. Have you checked for it yet? That turbo manifold is not bad at all. That should NOT be the cause. What's compression look like? Maybe the motor is in poor shape. .

Re: (underpressure02)

maybe i ll check it today
timing belt is set
ignition timing is set @16btc
motor has good compression 180 in every hole
vaccum is steady at 22inch

Re: (4cylinder)
So maybe boost leak, or exhaust. try running open downpipe and tune it that way, see if the power goes up alot. If it does, it's the exhaust

whats the best way to check 4 boost leak?
i check all the clamps and hose and they re all good i have heavy duty clamps
maybe i have a hole in my intercooler or a crack in my turbo.

Re: (4cylinder)
it definitely looks like you have a boost leap. that dyno sheet is too linear for a boosted car. what you can do it disconnect the charge pipe at thethrottle body and blow compressed air into it and look and listen to see when the leak is comming from. or let the car idle and spray brake cleaner around you intake manifold and throttle body and then spray you vaccum lines.

Re: (m R g S r)
I don't think that the parts are neccessarily wrong, though the exhaust is a bit small for any top end. I'd look at exhaust / vaccuum leaks in your entire system, and honestly, I'd make sure that the tuner isn't making you soo rich and keep the timing retarded so much, that it's not hurting additional performance.

Re: (TheShodan)
If your manifold says 18psi, how could it be a boost leak? Would the turbo spin faster to pump more air to compensate for the holes and go out of it's efficiency range? I dont understand

Re: (4cylinder)
How high are you spinning it? Next time you dyno, make sure the scales are the same on each side and make sure you don't cut off the RPM's at the bottom. Taking a quick guesstimate based on 308 WHP and 225 WTQ at that peak there, you're spinning the motor to no higher than about 7500 RPM's. Take that out to 8500 and you'd make a goodly amount more power. How late does boost come on, I'm getting a headache just trying to look at that graph but it looks like boost is coming on very late so you might have a boost leak somewhere, or even a blown turbo.

Re: (4cylinder)
I have a b16 9;1 with stock sleeves and the same turbo. and even the same size downpipe. Only i run open down pipe.
My car made 280whp@10psi 320whp@15psi 347whp@17psi but on 18 it wasn't making more power and on 19psi also no more power.
I think its the exaust in combination with the turbo why you can't make more power.

You're making 347 WHP at 17 psi vs. his 307 WHP at 19 pounds of boost, and he has a significantly larger motor than you. It's more than just his exhaust.

What's your compression ratio? I may have missed it, but didn't see it listed anywhere. Maybe it's way down? Exhaust does suck though

Re: lsvtec 307whp on 18psi with turbonetic t3t4 is something wrong? (dennis)
i think its a boost leak b.c I remember Mase saying something in another thread about the torque, it usually levels off, but yours keeps growing.
I'll PM Mase this post
