Jimmy- I'll check that tubing tomorrow and email you with a list of what I have. Sorry about the delay.
Allthough I havn't got the boost controller installed yet, I strapped the car down on the dyno and was just using vacuum t's in the wastegate line to vary boost.
With 100 octane, it spiked to 20 psi at 4,600, and then dropped off to around 16.
It made 645rwhp at 5,070 and 700rwtq at 4,650. Both HP and torque lines were on a steep incline until boost dropped and then they dropped off.
Hopefully when I get the boost controller installed and see some steady boost it will lay down some REAL hp

thanks! congrats.

Your car seems to spool up quicker from the way you describe it. I guess I would expect that with the differences in exhaust housings.
It was dynoed through the SLP exhaust. It is modified though, with a 3.5 intermediate pipe, and 3.5 muffler inlet.
very impressive(through that exhaust). I want my ride to be a littler quieter, and I have thought about a 2OTL setup, with a bigger I pipe.
let us know if you get a chance to uncork the exhaust, and any gains you get.
fyi, 20psi @ 3600 ain't bad! once I get my fuel system done, ill see what kinda RPM it takes me to see that kinda boost

sweet, innovative does some nice work...I've just become enamored with the holset variable geometry tech though...would love to see this stuff advance and be adaptted to gas motors though, diesel turbos roar
There is a company called HP Performance that builds a holset/garret hybrid
basically a holset turbo with a garret exhaust housing

^^^check that site out for more info on them
