only 1.9 ft lb less peak torque it makes peak torque sooner now and holds later in the rpm hence
the higher power , since power=torqueXrpm/5252 roughly (with ots of other variables)
ok think i found the cause of slow 1/4 mile , my turbo is whining really bad and car is now undrivable
so off that comes and have to send back to manufacturer , its only done 16,000 km
and 13,000 of that was less than 13psi
don't worry about the boost its run mate, they can take a lot more than that. Most turbo failures are either caused by physical damage to the wheels, or oil feed problems.
Either way though, sucks to be you man, sorry. Hope you get it sorted quickly and get back to the track for some fun, and a proper time & trap speed

thread revival
i replaced turbo with a garrett gtx3076r
and i now have 311rwkw but still doing slow drag times
running 255 50 16 toyo tq drag radials on 14psi tyre pressure i ran
a 12.66 @111.94 mph 1.975 60'
for the power i should be doin 120mph
why am i still failing 12 months later?
what am i doing wrong?

Maybe you're just a shit driver, or there's a coke can stuck under the accelerator haha
What are you using as the basis for expected MPH? Moroso drag calculator or similar?
Its a pretty heavy car man, are you really unhappy with a 12.66 on a pretty slow 60' time?
120mph puts you pretty close to a ten second pass with all other aspects spot-on (perfect launch, shifts, gearing etc)........ that's a quick pass for a heavy car.

Don't argue with an IDIOT.He will bring you down to his level and then beat you with experience!
comparing mph to what tuner said it should do , and also every online calculator i can find
trust me its not easy gettin a manual 311rwkw 1640kg car of the line fast but
everyone says trap mph is the true hp which puts me at 245ish rwkw? and i have dyno printouts from two different dyno's showin
over 300kw,
i know dyno's not 100% accurate but over 20%out surely not
so where am i losing power?
Thats the problem then you need better grip then bigger rpm take off
In my celica it only had 170 rwkw and ran a 12.3 at 110mph but I was running 26x8 slicks and leaving the line on the limmiter 6500rpm with no wheel spin at all and a 1.6 60ft
The slicks gained me a 1.1 seconds over street tyres

Low tyre pressure would also slow you down... get good tyres
hahahah get good tyres , i'm running 255 50 16 drag radials
its not the 12.6 i'm un happy with its the mph that points to lower power than i have
happy dyno ..
so two happy dyno's?
