slavearm's mazsport turbo kit dyno
if you could get yourself a hollow block of aluminum, you could always just tap some holes into it an screw in some threaded, barbed nipples to attach the lines to. although i dont recall the GE manifold to be that expensive.

base run was at 6psi, untuned... forgot to print that sheet, but it was something like 286whp.
he got it to 304 whp tonight @ 8psi. a/f was nice, but the timing was SO conservative, i don't think you'd ever have to worry about this thing blowing up...serious man, this was a CONSERVATIVE tune! i saw it for myself.
we're all exhausted, and i've got to get back to work. so here's a teaser sheet, and hopefully we'll have something more betterer tomorrow
how often do you see a turbo car keep making power past 8k? that's the ****!

Ordered the GE Manifold. Not very expensive even anodized. The fittings cost as much as the manifold actually.
Where'd your tq go?
199 @ 6PSI
255@12PSI (this number will go up when my HKS comes in)
I think I need to go find some rich fat chic to marry so I can be one of the first in the New England area to own this kit
Would marring the girl just for her money to buy the kit make me a bad person???
Congrats on this kit btw, I've been leaning torwards a S/C but damn the numbers your getting and being "Conservitive" is making my eyes do double takes.

*Dont quote me for that!*
This is a complete kit and is currently ready for sale.

$9995 for type 2, liquid to air, T4 hybrid turbo, top mounted
$8500 for type 3, air to air, T4 hybrid turbo, top mounted
and the type 4 will be coming down the road.... we joke that it is the kit your wife will never know about.....
liquid to air, T4 hybrid turbo, low mounted....can't see anything....
when Scott is back in Tampa we will dyno Type 2 and post those numbers. They took a detour to the Sema Show in Vegas.... The type 1 on Slavearm's 8 dyno'd at 335RWHP if i remember correctly. shane, could you please post that dyno chart for us?
these are all complete kits with fuel pump upgrades, primary and secondary fuel injectors and the interceptor-x included in the kit. All of the tubes are staineless steel and can be ceramic coated including the turbo and manifold for an additional charge.
thanks to everyone that helped us get that 8 dyno'd before sevenstock!!

Yah sure, but remember that dyno was on crappy gas and an extremely conservative tune, and a not very sparky spark plug.
Just have to wait till I get home, because Christy has the USB key with the actual dyno files.

What options are available to those that already have the greddy/interceptor setup?
or more specific..those of us that already have the greddy, interceptor, and mazsport fuel pump and injector kits?

AND you have a catalytic converter, which i forgot to mention before. get rid of that and it'll bump the numbers up a bit.
*drools*
so what would you ESTIMATE you could get with the Type 1 with 93 octane gas (what we have here in texas), badass spark plugs, and moderatly conservative tune?
In all honest it doenst matter - because 330 to the wheels is PERFECT for me.

I am thinking 350ish for my conservative tune at 12psi, maybe 370 or so at 14-15psi. Just keep in mind, it ships by default with a 5lb spring in the wastegate which will net you 6-8 PSI without a boost controller.
In all honesty, I think the kit is good for up to about 390-400, but you may run out of injector/turbo past that. Scott ships the setup with a nice streetable safe setup. Make sure you proceed with caution for anything beyond that. If you can, get some other int-x owners together and setup a tuning trip for Scott. It isn't that expensive, and Scott is one hell of a tuner.

If I can talk RRR in Santa Ana to give me some discount dyno time, I might be ready in a week or so to do a run with 100 octane and upgraded ignition. BTW, RRR are good guys to work with. They really helped us out with the dyno, and they use a very accurate bung based WB02 instead of the typical tailpipe. Nick/Louie and team bent over backwards to help out, and kept the shop open late two nights in a row for us.

i don't want to push it too hard without the alcohol injection. we're gonna be running out of gas up top, and will probably have to use the alky to compensate for the mixture, not just the detonation prevention.
We can watch it, go up 500/1000rpms per pull and if the AFR starts creepin, we figured out where we have to stop. Scott was able to push I think close to 390 on 100 octane from the conversations I heard at SS9. I don't plan to run Meth long term, so I don't really want to buy a kit. If we can borrow one that would be great.
