Steve,
You cock, back pedal all you like, but it IS a HYBRID T3/4. This is the definition of a hybdrid turbo you cock .

Next you'll be saying that a T3/4 with a 0.48 housing isn't a hybrid T3/4 either .

If you knew ANYTHING about turbos, you would not have made that comment, I think you should just stand by the first part of your statement.

I see you added "usually" just to cover yourself - twat .

But for an engine to make more incar than on the dyno.

A. its impossible. (if this is not the case please explain)
B. Rollers incorrect. (see A.)
It is perfectly possible if you yank the boost up another 10psi

Probably made less power due to higher ACT's. The fact that it felt faster is an 'Ass-Dyno' issue. I would think about getting that calibrated.

Maybe your figures were taken at the same time as you were talking about your knowledge of Turbo's.

B A N T E R Dingy. Dont rise to it. Im just kidding. Right?

Usually mike yes, if your head can't flow the power the extra boost makes fuck all difference

C&B, was a semi serious q regarding the pod, be good to see what the difference is to be honest, i am sure oli would be up for it

So this T34 Hybrid can flow 440bhp........get one of them, no lag, lots of power...(dave just needs a box now LOL)

I aint rising to anything anyway........

right, back to my cup of T
I am that "guy round here" - Mike knows me and my car - it has one of Harvey's T34's with light blues

The claimed power is 400 @ 2 bar, but I have not seen a printout to prove it - although it just so happens it is going on Harvey's rollers this coming Saturday, although I understand his rollers are opnly accurate up to about 310????

All I can say is I am well pleased with the power when it strikes 2 bar, and the mid range torque in all gears is very good indeed - I would guesstimate mine outs out between 380-400 at the fly

Dave,
I think you will struggle then, as Harvey's rollers don't seem to be able to cope with anything more than just under 300bhp at the wheels before they scream for mercy .

I'm just hoping Harvey will take a guess and say 450

And if I fit some neon washer jets, maybe even 485

Phil,
Ranj's manifold will take another set of injectors that fire directly into the inlet runners. This in itself has been proven to add at least 15bhp, compared to in the usual place....
