Default Sts dyno numbers

Here is my dyno run on 5.5 lb and everything that is in my sig. The lower pull is my h/c package pull on the same dyno before I installed the turbo. I have a NA cam right now so my numbers could have been a good bit better. You can view my dyno sheet at http://my.starstream.net/f8lpony/Pho....5psi%20sm.bmp

That cam makes that dyno look really odd with a turbo. Your HP curve looks like that form an N/A or centrifugal setup.

great #s though

Yeah my cam was cut for a NA or nitrous setup so it is extremely weird with the turbo. I a have a big new turbo cam for my car but I have to see what is wrong with my motor first. Thanks for posting this for me and it is a shame we live on oppisite sides of the country, I would love to see your truck. I also have the gt67 upgrade which with the ported heads seems to let this thing just keep on breathing. It never falls off and seams to pull harder the higher you rev it.

NP man, glad I could help... It would be fun to take a ride in that beast when it's finished. My cars have been decently fast so no matter how fast i make the truck it still doesn't feel fast. My satisfaction comes from seeing the looks on peoples faces when I beat them rather than actual adreneline pump you get when trapping 120mph+

It seesm like the cam is bleeding off boost on the bottom end so it's hacing a hard time getting power up. Wait till you get that new cam and some lower compression. It's gonn abe wicked!

Nice numbers, but why did u stop the run around 6K RPM? Take that sucker up to 6500RPM.
Also i dont think a cam change would affect your setup that much because the turbo is really far from the manifold hence less effects in spool up and EGT when changing the cam specs. I would go with a big cam 230/230 or 232/232 but 115 LSA to keep the boost in the combustion chamber. Just my .02 cent.

Have you seen many of these kits dyno'd? They defiantely don't look like the one above and all those were done on stock or turbo cams. His spool up is not because of the design of the turbo kit. There are other factors effecting the way his HP curve is so gradual instead of a quick ramp then plataue.

I took my 230/234 591/589 114 cam out on saturday to go with a 226 turbo cam on 115. Idles at 700, its quite and I can peak the car at 5800 which should be 600+ at the wheels. Less revving equals longer engine life. Also much more streetable.

Did u dyno your setup before and after? Also did u put the STS turbo numbers compared to the ATI?

Last monday it went on the dyno but blew a head gasket. Give you an idea my 630hp runs have been on all summer long and plenty of wot runs and never blew. One run with a gt70 at 10 psi and it **** the felpro right out With only 14 degrees timing to start as well. At 9 psi and the old SC cam it absolutely screwed once it made boost but it came on too late for me. So the new cam is in, gm mls gaskets are in. All buttoned up with a big fmic as well. It will be tuned this week and I will post all the numbers. Im starting at 10 psi and going from there. Hoping to make 550-600 rwhp and 650+ tq. We will see. Im willing to push the gt70 to 15psi. Wish me luck Also used to run the d1 with 24 degrees of timing and always had 0 knock but the iat's were 140+ after one run. After about 5 wot street runs with gt70 and fmic they were 78 degrees. Im gonna push the timing into the 20's as well.

On the dyno when it it blew it only had about 4psi but still put down over 500 rwhp and 490ish tq. So tripling the boost and upping the timing from 14 to 20+ outta be good

PurEvl.... I got a little confused... are you still on a SC, or are you on the STS now?

The SC is off, the sig numbers were the SC setup, I now have the same setup but a turbo cam and a gt70 sts kit with fmic

I really wanted to take it up to 6500 but I was leaning out up top so we backed off. I just bought a fuel pump booster so when I get my motor back together we will spin it up a little higher. The cam I purchased for my car looks like this. Futral motorsports turbo cam 228/224 .584/.591 114/110. This cam was cut for 8lbs of boost and up which I plan to run next year when I drop some compression.

PurEvl, did you happen to take note of the RPM range when you started developing power with the new STS kit? Also, when did you develope power with the D1, in comparison.
I appreciate the info, both for my own good, and for those hashing me for considering STS...

Your cam is pretty aggressive for a turbo system, have you had any boost blow-by due to the 112 lsa? Also, what is the combusiton chamber size of your heads?

I believe my cam was hurting my power and spool time. I am switching to a decent size turbo cam to take care of the problem. My combustion chambers are around 61.?? cc's which is about 11 to 1 compression. I am trying to sell my heads so I can switch to 6.0 heads to lower my compression.
