Hi guys,
I don't post here very often but I wanted to share the progress of my big turbo upgrade. It is an hybrid GTX3582 ball bearing with GEN2 billet compressor wheel. This hybrid turbo in this case means it is a stock housing that is milled to fit a genuine Garrett CHRA. The turbo job was done by SillyRabbit/Eurocode. I am using the CTS front mount intercooler, BMS JB4 for tuning, BMS WMI.
The whole install job took 6hrs including the FMIC. The thing fits bolt on using all the oil/coolant lines and OEM pneumatic WG.
I had some fun using VirtualDyno just to see the gains. As we can see it is pretty significant only using 22psi of boost. Tuning is not completely done as we are looking at ways to move more fuel to the injectors. We have been able to offset the fuel rail pressure to lower the trims. For now I am satisfied with 22psi without using meth for daily driving but I am still working of getting more out of it on pump fuel. These charts are done prior the WMI install. Virtual Dyno is pretty consistant when used properly but take it for what it's worth, numbers are AWHP. Real dyno numbers are to come as well as 1/4 times to back it up.
*In red = 100% stock
*in blue = DTUK with USDM map
*in green = GTX3582 with JB4@18psi
*in yellow = GTX3582 with JB4 @22psi
I have installed the WMI to be able to push this thing even more on the stock fueling. On top of the benefits like better cooling and higher octane rating, the WMI will help lower the fuel trims due to the added fueling from the methanol when I will push it beyond 25psi for 1/4 mile track use. WMI install took another 4-6 hours because I wanted to make sure that all the lines are well hidden within the cabin for the cleanest look. My next step is to dial in the WMI along with perfecting my daily driving map on pump. And do a little clean up under the hood to hide the lines and make everything look clean.
