@soccerballtux It's the tune that makes a rod. Nothing More. Nothing Less. I've seen people boosted for 40K+ and are still going strong. Eventually though, build that motor up. Even if it's just forged rods and pistons. I'm building my motor up this summer so I can turn up the psi and shoot for more power.
i ran it on 9 psi and my stock engine went boom.. but i think i messed it up because i got on it few times with a shitty tune. now i'm running fully built motor on 12psi making 346whp and on 16 psi making 398whp with Hydra standalone EMS.
but you should be ok with 6-8psi just MAKE SURE you get it dyno tuned before going into boost.
@RusWolff alright thanks man yea im going to take it easy in the beginning till i get it tuned properly and then im going to start saving to build the motor so i can eventually go up in hp
i would suggest to really think about it before you go boost and built motor, because its going to be very hard to sell the car and sell everything if you decide to part ways with it. Myself for example is so far into the game that i'm stock with this car now for a long time and making it my toy.
@RusWolff yea i have to think about cause i know im going to have this car for at least another five years and then go from there so i have to think about it and c, its just that at turbo tc is so tempting haha
yeah that ptuning fuel return set up is next on my list... As far as exhaust i think its too expensive. Yes is polished and pretty but its under the car so for me really polished does no good. My exhaust for example is a 3'' s-pipe back.
$60 Hi-flow magnaflow catalyst converter
$65 Magnaflow race muffler
$70 Thermal exhaust tip
$220 all welding, all pipes and installing the exhaust.
so i think i saved almost $300 and i love the way its sounds.
sorry to dissapoint you but you will not get 75WHP from their exhaust...
you would have to run HIGH boost to get 40WHP.
and to be honest with you, theres no magic to their exhaust. It is no different then any other similarly made 3" exhaust. my .02 is local exhaust/welding shop is the way to go..
what kind of turbo is that? Is your scion a Automatic or manual? I have a 08 automatic and kinda wish i bought a manual, seeing as i want to turbo charge it now . lol
thank you.. 3 inch magnaflow does sound sick :) I love it.. especially the rumble i get when driving slow in 1 and 2nd gears and coming to a stop surely makes people look .
Sexy sound

@oOoironhideoOo Actually it felt as there was no lag at all driving on the street. That turbo was pretty good match.
RusWolff 1 year ago
so if I turbo a tC to, oh, 8.0psi,
how long will my engine last assuming good tuning to keep afr where it needs to be?
soccerballtux 2 years ago
or, let me put it this way, if I wanted to drive it
50k, and
75k
what PSI should I stop at?
soccerballtux 1 year ago
@soccerballtux don't boost it. Sooner or later its going to blow with stock motor. If you want to drive the car for high milage stay away from FI.

@soccerballtux it's hard to say. it can last 20K miles or 2K miles. Nobody can answer that question. It's like playing russian roulette.

did u have any problems with running the stock internals on the motor cause im thinking of boosting my tc and running around 6-8 psi?

Bro, is that a custom Turbo Setup? Or you bought it a kit? I'm saving my money to get a kit. Hopefully nest year I can buy it. Yours is a Dezod?
jsonx9000 2 years ago
This is actually a dezod kit that you see in the video. But right now there is something much more powerfull being built.
RusWolff 2 years ago

If your gonna save up, save up big for the Ptuning SS turbo kit , Ptuning turbo-back exhaust, and the Ptuning fuel system.

When you have the ptuning turbo-back exhaust along with the ptuning turbo kit, you get an additional gain of 50-75whp

damn, nice bro. w/ only 9-10 psi, thats bad ass, because theres always room for more boost.
SCIONTCRS20 2 years ago
and theres always a room to blow your stock engine. Which i already did...
RusWolff 2 years ago
yup i'm rebuilding everything new results will be posted.. but next year this car will have 500+whp
RusWolff 2 years ago
is this really low?
widowedeight 2 years ago
300whp at 9 psi is good.
RusWolff 2 years ago
o i have no real clue, what size turbo is that?
widowedeight 2 years ago
50 trim 48 A/R

you need injectors so you can up that boost and hit about what the srt-4 do with a 50 trim :)
