SFR 326WHP turbo system-1 year update

We heard back from one of our customers who had us install a Speed Force Racing turbo system about a year ago. The verdict.......the car is running great and he wants to turn up the boost and try to make more power As the car is right now, it makes 326WHP on a Dyno Dynamics.So anyways,we thought we would post about a semi-long term update.

That PowerMod looks pretty nice the more I read about it. If it weren't for looking like we are on the advent of reflash systems I think I may get that one.

Is the owner a forum member? Would they be able to post a dyno? I just want to see if they are able to hold their boost to redline.

I remember him, I just don't ever remember hearing about that, or seeing any dyno. Kit does look awesome though.

Glad to hear the car is holding up after a year. I too would love to see the powerband on a dyno.

Those are pretty good numbers. How come more people haven't gotten this kit?

Wow, when the boost hits, it really must kick. It looks as though its falling off at the top end like the other kits though.

The boost is stable but the motor itself is not capable of taking in the extra air at high rpms.I have a feeling it has to do with the intake manifold.

I've read it could also have to do with the exhaust ports as well. Either way more power is more power. You hit 9k so fast you can't really notice the power dropping off anyway, you just see your boost gauge drop.

I agree with Moostafa29 on the exhaust ports! Just seems like there is some restriction on the exhaust side when running this much CFM!! Flow in = Flow out

I thought Mazda made the intake and exhaust ports about 20-30% larger in the Renesis! So where are the restriction's coming from? Intake or exhaust!
