Default 5.3 on3 turbo 18psi Video inside

Took my turbo 240sx to the dyno fri. I been running this 76mm on3 turbo for several months now. Finally found the issue i been trying to find for a while. It went lean on the dyno @5500rpms which is were it seemed to fall off at the track. I found my fuel bowls were being sucked dry. So im in the process of getting bigger .150 needle/seat and fuel bowl spacers to help keep this pig fed... Even tho i didnt get to turn the boost on up and make some good power it managed 650whp and 643tq running out of fuel @ 5500rpm.

I think I have the fuel issue fixed. Going back tom to try again. If all is good gonna push it to 24psi and hopefully get 800 out of it.

Nice. I am running that turbo on my LQ4. Haven't put too many miles on it but seems to be working well. Good luck on the next trip to dyno.

I think you missed the very very very clear signs that he is running a carburetor.
