Does anybody have any experience with this turbo and the dejon turbo kit.

Im definatly doing this in january but im looking for some info from anybody that has run this like when does it start spooling and how much hp it made at 14psi.

I know about the fueling issue and eventually when i get bored of 400 hp i will spend the ridiculous amount of money my shop wants to get more fuel into that engine so i can take full advantage of this turbo.

Im also looking for around how much hp does the stock clutch start failing.

Thanks for any help

 

i think its the torque thats causeing the clutch to fail more than the hp on the tc from what iv read.

 

I've got the 50 trim version of that turbo. Just make sure you spend the extra dollars to get the Dual Ball Bearing turbo.

 

factory clutches fail even after a no mods tune only its a joke clutch.

 

I haven't heard of anyone running that kit yet, even though its the same price as the 5457 kit. What I do know is that the powerband will be 4000+ RPM. Think 4-8k rpm... Then think about general fueling issues we face on stock and milder turbo upgrades...

Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see a 600hp LNF someday, but we aren't there yet.

 

Yeah right now the only option i see for the fueling is a sheet metal intake with aux. fuel rail and injectors that are activated by its own auxilery fuel computer with its own map sensor that gives a predetermined amount of fuel for each psi. But thats not perfect or cheap. And it may be the only option if they discontinue the LNF and we dont have a strong enough following to warrent aftermarket companies to make things for us. But im not going for 600hp right now im going to run it on low boost for alittle while and max out the stock fuel and then later down the road if there is no fuel upgrades i will probably do what i stated above.

 

I helped dave at dejon with this setup. I did the tuning and did 410whp and 395wtq at 20psi on the stock clutch. (now that hptuners has the over/under boost figured out your good to go). at this power level I had no fueling issues. my setup was on a PTE5457rb. let me know if I can help.

 

I don't have any useful info to help you out......




I want pics of the vette!

 

which version is that and is the 5657b to big?

 

Thanks for your help. I guess nobody has ran the 6057b turbo ill get this going in january and post up dyno sheets and videos and a full review. And ill throw in some pics of the vette.

When did the 5457 hit full boost?

 

it hit full boost at 4500rpm. someone with good cam timing skill on the lnf mixed with the right timing I bet could have it hit by 4k. it was at 410whp at 6100rpm and still going but I didn't want to push the fueling.

 

Yes and your car never ran well either.... Lots of boost surge >> (a very nad thing to have)...You left some videos all over the internet with your car and the 5457 on it and how badly it was running....

The 6057 is equal to a GT3076R Garette turbo..... It's best to run the boost low and keep whp at around 365-375 if you can even get it to make that much to begin with..... Notice there are lots of people with a turbo upgrade but the lack of people with turbo upgrades and the fact that their cars are not being driven at the track or on the street for all of one time and then you never hear about it anymore........ Becaasue they dont run well and cant be kept running ....... Boostkings turbo setup has passed three hands beyond his own because the turbo upgrades just dont work well in these cars.....

335 whp is enough to vanquish a LS3 vette so why go higher in hp.....

 

to have a 400 hp car why the **** not and maybe the tuning is just all messed up i promise you that when i put a turbo on my car it will be alot faster than a ls3 vette and no that is not enough to beat one you need about 350 to beat one

 

335 whp is NOT enough to vanquish a LS3 vette..your SOOO HIGH IF YOU THINK SO!

i would know, because im making that much WHP.

and i dont know why everyone is hating on the factory clutch..mine hold fine and im making 393 wtq

 

that!?!?! holy **** area 47 is like 350 whp and he couldn't do it it'll take 375+ to get ahead

 

a roll i could see possibly revhigh or area maybe starting to pull o na LS3..but a dig..a LS3 vette would wtfbbq sauce a 330 whp/3xx wtq cobalt anytime.

AJ, reply to my text.

 

I do see alot of threads on here about guys doing big turbos and then just dropping off the map. But there is alot of guys on the solstice and sky forums with big turbo and positive stories. I dont know what will happen but im still going to go thru with this in january and either it will work or it wont but at least you guys will know. I mean there were alot of guys on LS1TECH that said i couldnt run a 175 shot on a heads and cam LS2 with 11.8 to 1 compression and stock internals and stock clutch, that was a year and a half ago. But thanks for the info

And i think he ment LS2 vette. They trap around 114

ls3 vette vs area

 

Boostking what kind of problems were you having with your turbo setup

 

let me start off by saying that I dont work for dejon nor have I ever other than helping with this turbo setup. I NEVER HAD SURGE PROBLEMS NOR HAVE I EVER!!! what vids do you speak of. there is only one vid on the net and thats with a hks bov on the STOCK CAR!!!!

DO NOT give false info!!!!!

My car ran great at 410whp!. the car is going back to stock because I'm having a kid and I am buying an evo.

 

One thing I don't get is why all these big turbo swaps are not netting more power in general.

You see honda/acuras of similar displacement are getting 400whp on less boost (<25 PSI), not to mention the evo's and STIs, although the STI has 25% displacement on us.

Is this all because of tuning or are we really that limited in terms of head flow/cams???

 

We don't have access to vital fueling tables to get more fuel. And our turbo is probley smaller than the turbos they are putting on. Go blow 25 lbs threw a straw.. Now go blow 25 lbs threw a 3" peice of PVC pipe. There you go

 

Also, I think boostking was running 21 psi IIRC.

 

your sig is awesome

 

it makes me lol
