I wouldn't want to race only when I think I'm gonna win. Losing isn't that bad. The only cheating that can be done is if you go throw a screwdriver in his timing belt before the race or go slash a tire or something crazy like that. Not disclosing all your mods before a race isn't a big deal. Hell I don't say anything about my car before a race (though I'm sure someone could conclude I am turbo from the FMIC).
That's what bracket racing is for. Matt! Long time no post! I had to get rid of my s16g, it wasn't cutting it. After 18 psi is useless. Now I'm running 25 psi on a 25g turbo. It fully spools by 4k, so that gives about a 4k-7k rpm powerband. If you launch properly it's not a problem to keep it in that range. To be honnest I'm a bit dissapointed with this 25g right now. It's not the turbo, it's my EMS. The stock ecu is just too sloppy for a turbo like this.


Whats up Derek... I'm around here from time to time still, but I keep quiet for the most part. My S16g isn't cutting it at the track either... I'm looking into several different options at the moment.

I'm surprised to hear you say that your S16g is useless past 18 psi. It's definately starting to get out of its efficiency range, but who really cares about that. People who get the most out of their turbos don't operate in their efficiency range anyway. I got the chance to dyno my car here a few weeks ago. I made 287 whp 293 tq at 18 psi on 110 gas and 330 whp 339 tq at 24 psi (same gas) so I know mine isn't useless . Anyway, if I wind up putting an n2o kit on, I won't be running that much boost. I'll drop the boost back into the turbo's efficiency range and start from there. My main reasoning behind doing that over just buying a turbo that flows more is spool-up. I like my quick spooling turbo on a daily basis. It's only when I'm at the track when I get frustrated with my idy-biddy S16g.
