Breathless Performance Turbo is here, Dyno #s

Our first programming is done using a piggyback computer with a very easy wiring install and she runs great. To date we have put about 900 miles with our turbo system with no problem.

Yes our kit still has a flex pipe to reduce the vibration. We are also still going for only 4 to 5 psi to keep everything together.
We can also offer the kit with our stealth version exhaust where you have the center left along for your hitch.

We do have a splash shield protecting the filter yet still picking up cool air from the backside. Moving the turbo and the filter higher would increase the iat temps.

We decided to go with the piggy back for a few reasons. One we do not have the calibration as yet to load in the computer and two in a way its better to use the piggy back since you can just simply remove the computer and turbo in 2 hours still go to the dealer under warranty and have your computer upgraded any time.

Dyno day was today.

First we had a stock Smart with HP in 63 range then our other Smart with our twin tip exhaust and powerflow air filter and made 71. Now comes our proven turbo smart with a low boost level of under 5psi and we pulled 91 RWHP

Dyno video and chart will be on line by Monday

All our tuning went perfect all full throttle runs were between 11.5 to 11.9 On Stock Injectors!!

The stock ECU and our custom piggy back are a perfect match.

Install time is about 4 to 5 hours

We should have our production kits ready to ship in about 3 weeks and will be having pre production sale of $2950.00 on orders before March 10th

Package includes:
Garrett GT15 ( Spools up fast with little turbo lag like the bigger turbos )

Instructions


Here are a couple pics and more will be coming. The pics shown are from the prototype car and will have production pics in about 2 weeks.We wanted to test the system with at least 1000 miles before going into production.

Dyno video and chart will be on line by Monday

What if you already did an ECU tune? The piggy-back will over ride it I'm assuming?
