Twin-Charge anyone?

Here is the chart testing the car at different PSI levels. Now keep in mind, these were not optimized at each boost level. All we did was change the boost. The 13psi run ended up at 11.5 AF ratio. Changing it to 12.6 (safe for that boost level) and adding timing would have netted us closer to 300WHP (esimating).

Chris' car is making 23psi by 3k rpm!
One of the problems is that there are two boost controllers and if you don't set them right, you could have a serious boost problem with the blower not kicking out and letting the turbo take over. This is one reason why we aren't shipping kits and we are going to give Chris very detailed instructions. Basically have you have to have the blower boost controller set to a lower psi than the turbo boost controller or the blower will never kick out.

The lower RPM range is where there's lag which is why he wanted to see how the thing reacted from 1000 RPM's upward. 3rd gear/30 MPH and you're already at 2000 RPM's...The turbo's pretty much spooled up by that point...

Don't worry freakta I got cha back. It would have to be one big ass turbo not to be pretty much spooled up by 2000 RPM's from what I understand about turbos...

It is a big turbo, and it would not even begin to spool at 2000 RPM without the blower. The advantage of this turbo is that it will keep making efficient power past 30psi for those who build a complete package to support this. A turbo setup that fully spools by 2000 RPMs on a 2.0 would not be nearly as efficient at high RPMs and high boost levels.

Certainly, small turbos are great for quick response, but switching from a supercharger to a tiny turbo is only a small upgrade. Our twincharge kit is designed to add well over 100 HP to an already modified SS/SC. The turbo on this car can fully spool by 3000 RPM and still support over 600 HP. Overall, I'd say it's a pretty versatile setup.

The Hahn kit making 360WHP doesn't reach spool til 4500 rpm. I'm not sure why we have so many haters on this forum but it's getting out of hand. I feel like there is nothing we can do without getting flamed.
checkout our vid, spools instantly. yeah but can it spool at 2k rpm to 23psi?
We made 465WHP, yeah but the motor will probably blow up and what will it make on a customer's car?
Our kit made 400WHP on a customers car. yeah but I bet it won't on another dyno
We just outdid any TVS car by like 100WHP. yeah but the TVS isn't tuned.
Our kit makes 350ft lbs, yeah but you won't be able to launch.
Check out this dyno. yeah but you don't have the rpm.
Here's on with rpm. yeah but it doesn't go down to 2k
The list never ends, it's like hater central around here. WTF do we have to do for some respect and props?
