Default STS dyno results from TRT.

At 5 psi..b/c they didn't have a 7.4psi spring in stock...I was tuned and put down 433rwhp and 441rwtq. They told me to wrap the exhaust and then get the other spring in the wastegate...I should be putting down some serious power and with a lot less lag on the turbo!! It is amazing though, I LOVE IT!!!!

I raced my brother's 03 Cobra with 14psi...dyno tuned at 454rwhp and 476rwtq..I actually started to pull him in 3rd gear! I then raced a CBR 600 bike and held up with him till about 130 and then I let off...that guy was a d-bag. I'm pretty pleased with the results thus far..it's just a matter of time before i'm running upper 400's on both HP and Torque with the 7.4psi spring. I didn't want to come home..just kept wanting to drive the car...it's AWESOME!!!!...thanks to TRT...Dustin and Billy for their work, they're a great company to work with!

no doubt, i recommend their cam, i made serious power with only 5.5-6psi. imagine what i would make with the extra 1.5-2 psi

At first, the wastegate was hooked up wrong...(not my fault btw). Dustin took me out for spin, went WOT in 2nd gear and the thing made 12psi at 4500rpms. When he realized what had happened, he let off. HOLY CRAP that was fast!!!! It was scary fast, but good thing he caught the mistake! AFR was still good when it happened and no KR kicked in...timing was very conservative so i'm guessing there was no damage...it was just for a a couple of seconds.

I didn't realized what had happened at first and I thought that's how fast the car was going to be a 5psi...I was a little disappointed to hear the bad news ...oh well, the car still kicks ***!

I wish TRT was not so far away or else I would have him tune my car when I am done with my rear mount turbo project.

Dustin definetly sounded like he knew what he was doing when I talked to him. Im going to have some extra stuff done when i get there for them to tune it.. Im hoping to make in the lower 500's with 5psi..



What kind of custom FMIC are you running? Like where is it routed.. Im sure trt did it.. Just wondering what they did different with it. .I want to go up through the battery area with mine..

Do you have any pics?

I did the FMIC myself. I bought all the pipes, cut then, hooked them up etc. It's not TRT's kit, although after all the time and effort I spent, I might as well gone with their kit. Seriously, for the extra couple hundred bucks, it would have been WELL worth it.

Custom FMIC

Check out this other thread I started to see pics and info on the FMIC.

It sounds like he definately knows his stuff. I wasn't trying to take anything away from him. Just curious how much difference the IC makes at 5-6 psi. I'm thinking that that may be my next mod.

I tuned a stock bottom end intercooled custom rearmount car to 530 dynojet HP on 7psi, had patriot 317 heads. I was pretty impressed. When my car was STS on 6psi and 6spd with no intercooler only made 430 dynojet HP.

On low boost the seem to be very comparable to front mounts power wise, but tend to spool up 500-1000 rpms later depending on setup.
