After seeing Cossey's dyno and ridiculous torque curve with these turbos, I was sold. I had been set on k24/18g for months and when I was ready to pull the trigger, I saw these new and improved alpha turbos start coming out. That low end torque sold me.
Just got everything installed over the weekend (not me personally, as I have no skills!) and the conservative base tune flashed yesterday after Tony left for his 2 week vacation. Big thanks to Tony and Dave @ EPL for getting me taken care of in their hectic time! Love the remote flash option with the EPL flash loader program. Sweet.
Car and Mods:
01 996TT
EPL/Tial Alpha 28rs
72# injectors
EPL flash for 91 octane
Fabspeed Maxflo exhaust
Sachs/GT3RS clutch/LWFW
RWD conversion
EVOMS DV's
stock airbox/filter
First impressions:
Going from a EVOMS/GIAC stage 2 kit (on the car when I got it) everything is already much better: low end drivability, low end power (obviously!) and smooth idling. I didn't realize how choppy that GIAC tune really was at low speeds/RPM until driving with this tune the past 2 days. And with much bigger injectors now.
With only .9 to 1 bar max boost until I can datalog and upload the next flash when Tony gets back, I am already impressed with the new power in 1st and 2nd gears especially. Breaks the tires lose in those gears a little bit at only .9 bar. I am rubbing Toyo T1R 315s in back.
I can't wait to get the high boost flash done! It's gonna be a long 2 weeks.
I just got a Performance Box too and also plan to dyno this new setup at Stasis. And I am already setting myself up to do the meth kit sooner or later.
Does it ever stop?
Anyway, I am stoked to have some new power and will update with 60-130s, dyno #s, and maybe a 1/4 mile ET soon....
Cheers.
