wasnt trying to squash fun or creativity im all for that

I knew what you were trying to say. The most important part is we have fun building and keep doing it. If the numbers are big... BAM! good job. We all like big power and it is fun to see an idea come together. :cool:

And you know this how?

NOS works great, but you run out of a bottle pretty darned fast at Autocross/Rallycross, not to mention its not legal to run NO2 there....

Thats 390 torque @ 3800 rpm.... Then I had a belt jump (fixed that issue) But still made 350 whp @ 5200 rpm.....

My run against a supercharged Ford.... 12.5 @ 112.xx mph

YouTube - drag race subaru legacy supercharged turbocharged

Then I started making real power but had tranny issues, so I was stuck with 12.8 @ 112 mph passes WITH NO THIRD GEAR!

Yeah, twin charging doesnt work. My ass.

dont you love it how people with under 50 posts and no turbo projects under their belt tell you how things work and how they dont work. reddevil you know about the new site right

Have you all seen that issue of autoweek where they put a twin turbo system on top of a supercharged gt500? The way the power came on and torque numbers were insane.

Or maybe some of the new members just found out about this forum and are on others, or decided to finally sign up, but have a good amount of turbo projects and a good amount of turbo experience under their belts? Not to be defensive or anything, just because some people are noobs on a forum does not mean they are a noob in general

txdohczc 05-02-2009 04:32 PM

no i decide whether some is a noob by their complete lack of knowledge but yet still try to tell people how ---- works or doesnt work. read some of the responces to this thread and tell me any one of these new guys have any idea what they are talking about

RyAn007 05-02-2009 06:40 PM

Hahah yeah, i looked at that and realized wow, 90% of the new guys dont know anything, so i see where your coming from, at first i though it was in response to what I said, but those are some pretty good numbers redevil, and it seems like it really worked for you, but i still think if you tried another setup it would yield a better power gain and over all better performance, regardless great work.

txdohczc 05-02-2009 06:48 PM

ok so this post started out as a joke but these new guys turned it into a complete joke and still no one answered the question. but im suprised no one mentioned that greddy used to make a turbo kit for the supercharged mr2. so if it doesnt work why would greddy invest into it

RyAn007 05-02-2009 07:16 PM

We never said it wont work, just that it wont work best, being better than other options, as i said it will work, has worked, and has worked well, but still other setups do theoretically yield a better output, i think its time to test it haha. But really go for it if its what you want.
