when does this turbo begin to spool and then make full boost?

Can you post up a dyno graph?

What size A/R on the turbine housing?

Stout numbers.....

well id had some drive train probloms that i was did not know ahout till the front pump if the 80 took a ****. that was costing us some. then we were not referencing the WG in a way to back th most boost that we could so were were hitting a wall at like 15-16 psi and it was taking forever to get the boost to come on. well we had a set of 317 poerted with an emphasis on the ex side....wow!!! is all i can say. if you get the gases moveing out of the heads as fast as you can the the turben side has no other option then to move faster so with the combo of the heads and being abel to make boost it made more power and with less timming then we thought it would take but as always guys and i CANT STRESS THIS ENOUGH.....TUNE TUNE TUNE TUNE!!!!!! If it were not the fact that Bluecat (the best tuner in the world in my opiton) has not taket a persanal interest in the car and spent hours and hours on the dyno as well as the street tuning this car i would have got upset and sold it. The thing that no one talks about on here is all the suck fest it takes to get a car to make this kinda power. I had NO clue what i was getting into when i started this......that being said it was deff worth it!!

yelp old heads were BONE stock lol lol plus all the drive train stuff that was robbing HP oh and went to a 355 gear from a 373. not sure if that helped with power but makes driveing the car more fun.
OH and we had new springs put on as well the DG only had 150 lbs of seat presser were the PACs have something like 170. we were rakeing up real bad up top before. again not sure if this helped with power but everything is playing nice now
