whats the difference between a mustang dyno and any other dyno...and not to say you're wrong or anything but this car def def DEEEFFFFF felt like it had more than 160-70 hp...

 

yea, same thing.

 

other than a turbo manifold and exhaust and what not...what else would i need to put on to support a turbo like that

 

here we go again lol we should definatly make this a sticky.
to run up to 9psi:
manifold
turbo
wastegage
intercooler
ic piping
bov
these are the absolute bare minimums... to run it SAFELY and to it's full potential you'll need:
wideband
tuning device.
When you get to this point if you still want more power you'll need to upgrade the bottom end which includes.
forged pistons
forged rods
rings
rod bearings are good to upgrade
main bearings are good to upgrade as well
if you are taking the block out of the car urethane motor mounts are good to get along with a head gasket (Cometic is good)
after this you can up the boost, you'll need:
manual or electronic boost controller
and definatly need a boost gauge with this feature
your stock clutch won't last long now so you'll need to upgrade that.
also at this point it's time to upgrade the fuel system
walbro 190 or 255 in tank fuel pump
upgraded injectors suited for the turbo you are running
some colder plugs will also help you out.
these are the bare minimums to get your car turbo'd. over 3k just to turbo and with everthing i have mentioned here it's apx 5-6k depending on where you get ur items.

 

hold on though...you know im talking gst-tsi...right?? they can withstand up to like 15 psi stock cant they??? j/w

 

def def dont want to try and turbo that 420a...lol we've def been through that a few time just with me on here lol

 

Dont confuse WHP with crank HP. There is a big drop in there. So say his car puts out like 220hp from factory. Thats crank Hp that they estimate. (and i dont know thats what it is this just an example). Then when you actually put it on a dyno you might only get like 165whp

 

hp ratings that you get from the factory is called "crank" or "brake" horsepower... that is how much power that the engine makes. however when you put your car on a dyno there are a lot of other factors that come into play.... your crank now has a load on it... it's gotta turn gears in the trani, axels from the trani, and the wheels/tires at the end... there is a lot of power loss there which is what we call wheel horsepower. a mustang dyno is differnt from other dynometers because it simulates the restistance of the road as well so it always gives you a lower h/p rating than a dynojet or some other dyno.

 

oh ok i gotcha...ok so for instance i know the 2g gst came with 210 crank hp so how much would you say that is to the ground...

 

on a dyno jet i'd estimate around 180whp... its not an exact science, there are a lot of factors... wheel weight, wheel length, tire height, tire width etc etc etc it goes on and on. on a mustang dyno.. i'd say around 165-170whp.
