i will b attempting this. motors in the process of being built.plan on purchasing the kit in january

Only one person ordered the kit...........you can still go to the websight and purchase one, but it seems they will only be offering it as an install, not as a kit that you would install yourself........

Dunno if this is a noob question, but why does the kit use the s/c to make boost at first and then just bypass the blower and make 25psi on just the turbo? Could they just make say 13psi in the turbo in series with the 12psi the blower makes on a stock pulley? Wouldnt that be simpler to set up and make the turbo work less hard?

I believe it has to do with the way the bypass valve works once the turbo is making 13psi the bypass thinks the car has no load or its cruising so it bypasses just like when you on the highway and you hold a constant speed.

I might be a little messed up in the way i explained it but i think im on the right path.

wow that is crazy more pics and vids

I want to build up the motor as well. Looking to produce 600hp effectively (no wheel hop, slamming the gas and not just roasting 'em, etc.)

good luck

I'm pretty positive you can't add the boost together.

Turbo 13psi + Blower 12psi DOES NOT = 25psi. The compressed air from the turbo will not gain 12psi from a blower that makes 12psi, it will stack the compressed air. It's a matter of physics. I may not be 100% correct, but you can not add turbo + blower = 25psi like asked.

Someone told me that pushing air from a Turbo to a Supercharger works as a multiplier. So 13psi + 8psi = 25psi. Or something like that...

But I don't know if that is true.

No you cannot add the boost. The blower is basically free spinning when the turbo kicks in so the turbo is making the 25 psi by its self

no, the blower doesn't just free spin. The blower compresses the air that is fed to it.

so i know theres a band aid fix for this but how exactly is this kit pushing 25psi when the 2.5 bar map sensor and ecm will only recognize up to 22.5lbs boost?

just curious? and what are they/you doing about the 12000mhz maf frequency?

[Bill@usd]

I have a 2.7 pulley(im waiting for a 4''), on my twincharge setup, with a 14,5 psi spring in the wastegate, boost hit 29 psi a 2500 rpm...

the wastegate open at 19-20 psi


on my car, both boost is combine...

[ralliartist]

whew!!! That's a lot of boost fast. You definitely need to back off on the pulley. Going up to a 4" will help a lot. Lower IAT's will be the biggest improvement. I don't think you'll see too much slower spool time either.

[hungryhip-ccp]

^^^ so your saying your adding up to 29...... with the 2.7+19-20 the turbo makes.... impossible...

your turbo is giving you 29lbs boost /


EDIT: you got in the way of the flame.... Ralli


i'd check your boost controllers... so whats the afr @ 29 psi

and your not throwing maf codes?

[Bill@usd]

the turbo never give me 29 psi of boost when the wastegate open at 19 psi...

take a look by yourself

dont have boost controller just a 14.5 spring, this turbo and wastegate push 14 psi of boost in the charge pipe before the supercharger....29 psi after the supercharger
