Bug both ecutek and toni at the same time. You will get your license

So going to be doing the exhaust prob in 2 weeks and then hitting the dyno again to retune for that mod and she should all be done for now as far as boost and all of that goes i will post results accordingly lets see most likely going to go with 2.5" due to yeilding a slightly higher back pressure to deliver more torque as opposed to the 3" which im sure will make slightly more power but less torque so lets see what happens and once the lotlr is buklt than a full 3" set up will be done

that doesn't make any sense. Backpressure doesn't make torque. Improperly sized exhausts whether too small OR too large cause poor flow. A smaller but still properly sized exhaust will lead to more gains where the engine produces a slower timed and lower volume exhaust pulse. Exhaust size is based on hp goal, displacement, firing order, rpm.....etc.

Back pressure increases torque??!! I'm gonna drop mine down to a 1.5" system then I'll be in diesel territory for sure.

[King Tut]

IN for more backpressure and torque. Will that fix the dip?

[Reaper]

im actually going to run my ducati engines exhaust INTO my tailpipe to really up the pressure. More heat and pressure means more powa right?

Don't stop there, go metric and get down to 1cm. But you'll loose power.

I know, run 1 bank on a tiny exhaust and the other with a dustbin sized exhaust, massive power and torque.

I needs more power on my Ducati. I didn't realize how few horses it has.

Started my stage 1.5 install over the weekend. So far the only issue I've found is that the vband flange for the wastegate is warped, a little sanding and RBT and we're on our way. Getting ready to start up the engine this week.

Everything else was test fitted and appears to line up.

What does everyone think the limit of 770CC injectors and E85 would be?

[lp87]

is any modification of the car needed for the base kit, if I buy the pre-welded oil pan? Any tips on the kit install?

Depends on turbo, tuning strategy, exhaust, tuner, how aggressive of a tune, etc.

I am at 20-22PSI @ ~80% IDC on 540CC w/ a DW65c pump on a stock midpipe with a GTX3071 (NOT an FA20club kit). Every tuner handles injection differently. I run pretty heavy on the DI injection on my own car.

What are your power goals? 770 you could possibly hit the wall of a pump if your tuner is heavier on port injection and start maxing out in the high 400's but it may hold up 500+. Running heavy on the DI 500-600+ should be achievable as it has its own fuel pump. It is however more than most people are wanting to put down either way so it all depends on your goals!
