My turbo set up is finally "done" and tuned. Bob Kurgan came to SoCal this weekend and i was lucky enough to get my car tuned by him.

Motor was built by our own Rick Hawver of RNH racing.

basics are (for those that dont know)
Dart 363, GTS76 (3" downpipe), BS3, 120# injectors, big precision front mount, Super vic intake and a Jay Allen custom cam.

21 psi on E85, I think the turbo is done at this boost level, if you add in a couple pounds for "estimated" drop through the inter-cooler, I am pretty sure she is giving all she had.

Bob was pretty sure there was more in it, I however was so stoked on the numbers I had him stop there, it drives great, idles well, just WOW.

It made 884 on another run but I got the printout above.

Man, that is nothing short of impressive. I'd also be extremely happy with those numbers. You should go back on a day when the air is a little cooler to get yourself a solid 900hp pull :p

You are right about that turbo being done. You'll be well out of its efficiency range if you crank the boost anymore. Nonetheless, those numbers are crazy. Does any of that power make its way to the ground on the street??
 
Yeah I wish I got a torque reading too, the dyno started acting up on during my tune so I honestly dont know what the torque is. I can tell you this, traction is a limiting factor :)

I will scan the dyno sheet tomorrow. It has been a long time coming and it feels good.
 
What is up with the waves on the chart? Was it breaking up? My dyno runs are usually a solid line going up until no throttle. Just curious what that is. Great numbers though.

Im thinking tire slippage....

I know when I dyno a high HP or TQ car, we put 4 straps and 2 chains on them and try to strap them down as tight as possible.
