My turbo mirage
 
What's up guy?!?!?!

This is my first ever turbo. It's a '99 mirage (sohc ftw!!!). Car used to be automatic. I have put in the 4g94 (sohc lancer engine and 5 speed tranny). When I was going NA, I have put in high compression pistons in (11.0:1 compression ROSS forged pistons on stock 19mm rods).

Turbo kit is all custom fitted besides the turbo element manifold:
Garrent nissan turbocharger t25/28 (.60 intake / .80 exhaust)
38mm turbonetics wastegate
2.5 exhaust (this weekend will have 3'' side exit); no cats no mufflers
2.5 charge pipes
ebay intercooler
evo mr bov
460cc injectors, 255 fuel pump, fpr, fmu
272 crower (NA) regrind cam, stiff springs from performance springs
p&p head (gasket matched)
p&p IM (gasket matched)
controlled by emanage blue (ignition and injector harnesses)
etc...

I have dynoed 206whp and 223trq on dyno dynamics at 6.5psi; previous dyno while being NA 127whp/123trq.

Recently I just purchased a meth kit and boost controller. Going to the dyno this Friday. I want to pick up another
30-40whp, if my rods survive.

Here is my vid on 6.5psi (actually 6psi because my O2 bung has a decent crank in it) Enjoy!!!

Thank You!!!

Torque and the powerband feel great. No traction at all at 2nd gear (new azenis ???)

good number for only 6.5 psi sounds good too, with the meth kit you sould be able to get real close to what your looking to get, if the tuner know his ----

Thanks Guys!!!

More good news for me. Did the dyno over the weekend and I have to say that I love METH!!!

With 10 psi I have managed to get 247whp and 255ftq. (still on stock rods) With 2300 pounds car, it's moving very well.

I have gained 46whp and 32ftq from meth. Pics of a car and dyno sheet coming soon.
