Steve
Its about 330lbft
So 15% or so more than on this MD240SCS, which to me is worth far more than it being more useful under 3Krpm, but im thinking in trackday car terms, as I mentioned earlier for a road car, it sounds like a great conversion that harvey has done.
If you go and look at rich's graph it looks like his takes far far longer to spool than this one, but thats massively exagerated by the fact that harvey is forcabley holding the engine back at each break point where as rich's was just allowed to rev naturally, so as a result rich's hasnt had a large amount of time to spool the turbo at low RPM like on the dyno figures in this thread.
Thats not me accusing Harvey of any wrong doing, MAD do EXACTLY the same thing when they dyno their engines on exacrly the same type of dyno, but rich's graph was done a rolling road which works differently as it takes all the values in one go, not plots out multiple held values.
