anyways, a small turbo like that would spool fast and make the power your looking for. my a1 makes 190 @ 10 psi. ive actually seen a stock zc run 240hp on a stock motor @ 15 psi on a 16g, but it wasnt a dd (didnt get beat) it ran 12.8s

you a rpr member right?
didnt you chip your own ECU, if what did you do it with?

Re: TD04L-13T on a D16A1

im running the 13t on my d16y7/y8 mini-me. spools like a monster and has some great torque. i love it, its a great turbo for a daily driver.

there was another build a d16y7 running this turbo makeing 203whp/198wtq at 11lbs

Re: TD04L-13T on a D16A1

sweet project.

there is a guy on www.g1teg.org that has a turbo cvcc with a d16a1. I forget his username, but I'm sure he's on rpr also. Soooo, if you need any help, find that guy.

Re: TD04L-13T on a D16A1

You sure got me beat with that setup nice work! 160-170whp should be easy and if you have the tuning I'd go for more than that even... An hf manifold/t3 combo is pretty standard and works well for me at least.

Rexsk8er you say you're making 190whp at 10psi, what turbo is that on? I'm trying to figure where I'm at with mine at 8.7psi on a .54 t3... And are you running an HF mani?
