Lauren 2259 Report post Posted October 1, 2014 Well, if you're going for it mid-corner and balancing the throttle, that is where you will notice lag. In the scenario I'm talking about you should be right in the power curve at all times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CHOSENMAN007 81 Report post Posted October 1, 2014 The only thing missing from this test is an Avo & Sprintex combo, loved to see what that would look like on the Dyno....could you pair an Avo with an HKS charger? Is there enough room?Its been done ages ago mate.. Bigger more hybrid stuff coming out the sheds as always in the USA.. The u.s guys are always years ahead. But the first combo turbo-s.c came out of Australia funny enough.

CHOSENMAN007 81 Report post Posted October 1, 2014 I think the sprintex is a great kit but they all have their pros and Cons. I would assume some of the lower end torque on the HKS comes from the fact that it is being restricted so yes if you make the restrictor bigger i'd only expect to see and increase in the top end power. What you are saying is true but you can bore out the restrictor plate for free where as a new turbo will cost money and the Sprintex is already at full chat with the 75mm pulley. The HKS does cost £4.2k though....Mate with respect.. A sprintex 210 kit is far from full chat on a 75mm pulley. I'm on 238whp on that stock pulley (auto). And I'm sure I will get more on a 69mm pulley.. The charger can push out more than the actual motor can handle in my view (stock motor). I may be wrong but there are guys on smaller pulleys in the states pushing 260 plus wheel. Even a guy here in u.k on a 69mm pulley with 248wheel. It is a flexible kit.

Ade 517 Report post Posted October 1, 2014 The sprintex is a great kit, nice flat torque curve and i'm not trying to knock it, but as far as I understand with the 69mm pulley at ~7500RPM, the sprintex 210 at more or less at it maximum rated RPM. Sure you can overspin the Sprintex but Im talknig about using them within their rated RPMs. Yes I said 75mm in my post but its only slightly bigger than 69mm! 10% RPM margin is not a bad idea! THe HKS, for example, is like 230hub but unrestricted will do +100hp on that. Maz's car has a slighly bigger restirctor than the base kit. The sprintex is also great bang for the buck. Liek I said they all have pros and cons Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ade 517 Report post Posted October 1, 2014 You will over spin the charger any smaller than that. You'll possibly have to lower the limiter to run even a 69mm pulley. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lauren 2259 Report post Posted October 1, 2014 Didn't Ed have to reduce his rev limit using a smaller pulley? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ade 517 Report post Posted October 1, 2014 Yep. The quote from Steve about is from that thread where I read about it. 1 Polishingpedlar reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

These tests have all been done before over the pond, but this is potentially the first ever UK tests. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sticking with what I got.. Mo kit mo money mo problems hehe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lauren 2259 Report post Posted October 1, 2014 Twin charging is really very little gain for great expense. Just not worht it, though people will do it just because they can, not because it makes sense. 1 CHOSENMAN007 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keethos 842 Report post Posted October 1, 2014 I'd love to go twin charged, it'll be mental, I know there are little gains number wise but from what I've seen, it ups the performance all the way up the rev range, improving the weakness of the turbo up high and the supercharger down low.
