i'm tempted to re-dyno mine now . My hp at psi is not too far away from you and at 7500 (hp peak) i'm still at over 8psi .
Could be the first Greddy over 300hp maybe .....

i heard that it's hard for greddy to get 300, mine was 260, it was 8 - 9 psi, and when it was spike, it was crazy...but, it's good, go with MM upgrade, you will see the difference how small the greddy turbo is.

don't worry, wait for BHR turbo kit, because i believe it's good. the same set up as greddy, but it has bigger turbo, and believe me, it always put a smile on your face.

Yeah I get it . I didn't say i would make the same hp though, i know that wont happen . I just noticed that the hp differential was not huge and maybe i could squeek to 300 - maybe ....

HEHE - just messing with ya.

BTW - if you are looking to push the Greddy; might seriously consider an IAT sensor post intercooler and some water/meth injection..... or buy a better turbo.

Yeah, Brettus, I would be careful pushing the GReddy snail too far. Above 12psi or so it turns into a hairdryer and starts blowing some seriously hot air as it falls off it's efficiency island.

A post intercooler, pre-throttle body IAT sensor is a good idea along with water/meth injection with at 49% meth or alky to help cool the charge and reduce detonation chances. With that combo I bet you get to 310 or so, depending on the strength of your motor.

Any temp sensor should work; they all do the same thing really...may want to find one with a real fast response rate.

What gauges do you have? Brandwise.

If you want get fancy (and serious) THIS is probably the best IAT meter on the market. Two sensors, one for pre intercooler and for post, displays either sensor or shows you the temp difference (intercooler efficiency). Real slick, but pricey.
I plan on getting it after the holidays. I've heard it's response time is scary fast and it's dead accurate.

Otherwise PLX, AutoMeter, and most other top gauge manufactures have an IAT sensor or gauge.

Yeah - if you already have autometer - you can get theirs; order from Ray since his prices are good w/ Autometer.

Unless you wanna go baller style like Chicken said.... then again for that kind of jack + water meth jack; you can just get a better turbo and not worry about it.

Water/meth kit- $400 bucks, IAT gauge- $200 or more. Well, he's still at only $600+, Jeff's upgrade is $1800+ and as he said, long wait times as he is only one man.
Not to mention having the water/meth kit and IAT gauge is a good idea with the upgrade as well, so...I still say go for it.

You're blowing up my spot CW; we are supposed to all be on the same page; and that is to get him a better turbo....

MKAY? Now don't tell Brettus; he'll get mad at me.

good point . Might just be content with what I have hp wise - our dollar is sitting at 53cents today (down from a high of 80cents) so anything i buy will be more than double what you would pay (after freight) .

I love Marines... I gotta hide behind someone right? Those folks are shooting REAL bullets for crying out loud.....

My bad all around then - too bad Kiwi's don't make cool parts for my cars - what with them being cheaper and all.

We actually do have one of the worlds top rotary engine builders here - he built the engine for the 6second PR drag RX8 and more recently a 3 rotor renesis motor . Could be a good time to get that 3 rotor ?

not the same money - ours is worth even less than theirs
