Adam is the tuner, car is apart finishing up the WMI and rear battery change for a day or so, have to pull a spring out of the WG as well. I cut a hole in the rear floor to move the battery forward and towards the passenger side as far as it will go, doing the same for the WMI, have to do some sheet metal work with very crud tools but I used to do that well before I had a full shop setup, no worries.

My system has a DIY grill located intake, velocity stack to turbo full 3" and the full 3" DIY exhaust is has the least bends and less angle possible so my results may be a bit different than others.

I also have the DHM race IC and crash bar, DIY oil cooler, DIY larger radiator all fully ducted and a vented hood.

And the spool was slow, 20 @4100. Elevation sucks, but Russ came up with a better setup and I'm really happy with it.

Better setup is a gtx2860 with.....a .52 a/r turbine housing. It's spools 500 quicker to 20psi and about 1000 quicker to 25 psi vs the gt2560 I used first. I also have an additional 50 HP over that one. I'm going to be testing it out at lower elevation this weekend, just because I'm curious. Russ will show my same car comparo I'm sure when tuning is further in. This it 1000 rpm faster to 20 psi vs my ATP gtx2860 and puma speed header.

You have no idea how interested I am in that, since my mitsu turbo is basically a GTX2860 with a .42 or .49 turbine housing and I'm hoping I can keep some spool up, as I never wanted a 350whp turbo, but I may have one.

I didn't know you could get a .52 for the gtx2860. Smallest V-band turbine housing I found for the gtx2860 was .57
But... I didn't look very hard honestly :)
Def gives me hope for my GTX2864 .42 (or .49) turbine housing-ed mitsu turbo, lol.

Glad to see you kept the dhm kit and stuck with it !!


Cyborg turbo, TBE, panda TR6 intercooler, drop in green filter.

Is he using the same A/R as everyone else? It's interesting that his spool was quicker with that kit than with the quickspool. I'd like to see the same exact setup he has (A/R wise) but at a reasonable altitude.
