Whos says autos can't make good power?

Well recently 2 automatic people wanted to purchase our turbo kits, so we made an auto kit for the Scion tC and we revised the Honda Civic D17 kit to fit both cars…We provided the entire receipe for power and let them run. Low and behold, they made some quite respectable gains on small boost (both on 5 PSI).

Let’s start with the D17 guy…Baseline numbers were 90whp & 90 wtq.

End result: 164whp & 142wtq @ 5 PSI. Not friggin bad at all for 5 lbs. That is over an 80% gain in HP and over a 57% gain in TQ to the wheels.

The Scion tC guy…Baseline numbers were 120whp & 125wtq

End result: 227whp & ?? TQ @ 5 PSI because we could not get the TQ figure on the dyno to pull out a reading because of the RPM issue. We are heading back for the TQ value in a week or 2.

Needless to say, both were done with just bolting on our turbo systems. No additives, no spray, pump 91 gas, 5 PSI and lots of heat. When the tC was done, it was 105 degrees outside!!! Just figured I would share.

You do realize a dyno measures torque directly and calculates the HP number based on the torque and acceleration
