Wow i just found this thread now there’s a lot going on. But yea everything that alpha earl is saying i agree with man knows his shit.

If i were you id be looking for another turbo if you want 500whp. That little t3/t4 will be hurting at 22psi and up mine pretty much hates me at 20-22. Find a bigger turbo and run less boost things will be a lot happier.

You have a few things to learn but looks like you are off to a real strong start.

And JT76 run the same size tires as me and i want to see how straight your properly set up rwd goes \<3

Just run the t3/t4 at like 16ish psi and be happy with the 400whp will be more than enough for a while.

☹ I didnt know a 1.8 was a good 60 foot for a 400+ rwhp car with full suspension, slicks and skinnies.

ughh needs to be tinkered with, i think i have a few ideas where the gremlins are.

And for the record, i can cut 1.7x’s at lancaster, NYI doesnt like me ☹
