SynapseTurbo's Initial testing 365whp 359wtq
We were able to do some initial testing on our gt2871r top mount turbo kit. Hopefully with the help from Psykosteve we can pull a little more out (needs alot of fine tuning), but it sure is a blast to drive. Also we are able to run an atmospheric BOV with zero drivability issues.
Here is a comparison graph from when we first got the car and from today.

Nice numbers though, can't wait to see what this does at the track.
Yes, I have tuned some of the most powerful cars in the country, but steve has alot more experience with this engine than I do, so we decided to work together to provide you guys with the best parts and the best tune possible.
now lets talk turbo....
what hotside did you guys go with? thats a small-mid frame turbo, and thats REAL laggy.
I'm hopeing that its just a down fall to the rough tune your useing, but with lots of cam phase work, we've had 3575R cars spool at 4k.
and yes i'm talking about ss/tc's
the beauty of a VVT head, is you can go wild with cam phase on the intake side, while it'll cause a touch of KR it'll bring the turbo up like one wouldn't believe. a touch of initial retard on the exhasut will help things out just that much more.
use the shift event trigger to phase the exhasut cam WAYYYYYYYYY out and you'll have a mini-antilag, with out the poping and cracking, but it'll keep the egt's up. thus, a happy turbo!
i'm just speaking from my experience with the SIDI motor thus far.
cheers tho guys, your truly the cutting edge thus far with the LNF.
great looking charge pipe as well!!!!

Holy turbo lag batman! Have you guys thought about upgrading the compressor wheel on the stock turbo? 365hp is nice, but how does the car feel since you dont get any of that until like 4400rpm? The stock turbo comes on at like 2800rpm. Nice work on the build, Id like to see a GT3076R soon!
