Im currently running a stock d16z6 @ 7psi with a T3 .42/.48

This winter I am throwing in rods and pistons and Im wondering what kind of power I can pull out of this turbo? Max efficient psi?

 

From my using of my old .42/.48 I wouldnt try to get more then 250whp from it

 

in reality, it'd do fine up to about 300 whp.

i'll let you know.......looking to do 300 on mine within 3 weeks if the engine breakin goes well. doing about 200-215 on it right now at 8-9 psi (stock a6) made 185/155 on 6.5ish psi last year.

doing rods and pistons as we speak, waiting for the bearings to come it.

 

Will this thing be efficient up to what? 18psi?

 

not sure. i'm guessing 15-20.

not my area of expertise.

 

Anyone else?

 

15-20psi depending on what condition it is in.Should be good for 250whp-275whp with the right setup.You'll have to see for yourself what it makes but like I told you already 250whp should not be a problem.

 

Im having it rebuilt although it isnt really due...just to be safe so it will be mint.

 

im shooting for 280whp with mine at 18-20 psi. but mine is only 300 miles old. So i would say that for one that is in good shape up to 20 psi. and around 275-300whp

 

I have one (from the factory) on my 88 Shelby Daytona. I made 270FWHP at 16psi in my 2.5L SOHC motor.
