Default T72 got full boost at 3000rpms with Phamspeed kit

Just finished the install on RicksWS6 car and wanted to share Full boost off the wg spring (5psi) came in right around 3K rpms. This was done mostly in first and second gears. I'd say 10psi should kick in right around 3200-3400rpms. Very responsive turbo!! Lag took away some low end but still pulled hard in any rpm we stomped on.

boost controller in line with the wastegate should help spool a little if it's not one of those bleeder kinds

Just let me know when you want to get that thing tuned. If you want to see some good #'s get injectors and a pump.

BTW, I sent you an email

I'll definitely take you up on that offer in the email you sent me! I drove it to work today and around to get parts and am going to need more cooling. I talked to Thunder Racing today and am getting injectors and a pump so I can dyno it soon!

I can vouch for this after getting a ride in John's(99SS-T's) car and driving it. Besides the lag, the turbo has lots of power. Sounds awesome with the atmosphere dump, but I would prefer the dump into the DP. Thanks again John for taking me for a ride and letting me drive. It was fun.
