I was just wondering what times he was running with his t-78??? Im sure we have similar mods except for my fuel system and i have a wet shot of nos...... UM boost i would imagine would be the same i think he runs 15 pounds right? Also im an auto but there wont be much of a turbo lag with a 4200 stall converter, Also i wont loose boost between shifts like a manual so i will always be in full boost. So any feed back from the man himself i would epriciate it..........Thanks.........

Why in the world would you want to run only 15psi on a t78?

Your never gonna make any serious power that way?

I just don't get that.

yeah at 15psi, you should have gotta a smaller turbo, like a T60 or T66. You know that T-78 is most efficient @ 30-33psi, right? I don't unerstand why ppl get such big *** turbos and run them at low boost.

450 hp with no nitrous shouldnt be a problem if you can find someone to tune it for you and you have the dollars for alot of dyno time.

my goal is 15psi and 450rwhp. i made 416rwhp @ 13psi.



with the car detuned and broken tranny and ppf and drag radials. i ran



12.0 @ 117.6 MPH with a 1.75 60 FT. that was @ 15psi but the car is detuned and running so rich it only has about 350rwhp @ 15psi right now. i might be getting a sequential dogmission. after the car is running again i will be dynoing at 10psi,15psi,20psi,25psi . i also plan to switch to 1680cc primary injectors. that will be more than enough fuel for 30psi
