I'm pretty sure most of us have. It. Sucks to spend all that time and money but when u do it right it pays off 10 fold over cheaping out.

Dude I have heard many people say the exact same thing...
Lex + 550's = 400hp
I had them along with eman blue, profec E-01, K&N air intake, Greddy TD-06 20G, HKS dp, ED sport cat, and HKS dual tip sport exhaust and could only ever get as high as 360HP on a dynapack rear wheels off dyno. Now that I switched to the MAFT Pro kit with aem EUGO wideband & boost control and just dynoed at 363.50 on an awd Mustang dyno which is the most accurate at reflecting true road conditions. The tech said that on a dynapack I could have gotten 400 - 425. So is the quote supposed to read
Lex + 550's =400 HP on a dynapack only?
Or are there any supras out there doing 400HP on an awd MUSTANG dyno?
Thanks

oh, so very true.
its the ability to NOT cheap out that most of us do not possess. if you had the money to buy the best parts every time and didnt, you would be an absolute moron. lol
id love to do my supra right. im trying to, its just taking a while.. but the lesson to be learned here is this:
these cars are turbo. it is very easy to boost a turbo car sky high...
its just gonna break over and over until you finally do it right with the right parts... which costs a lot.:nono:

the HKS downpipe isnt that great, especially since you mention NOTHING of the elbow being a high flow unit. but i'll assume that you did replace it. because the stock elbow is the biggest restriction in the exhaust system besides the downpipe. and i bought an hks downpipe, didnt even like how it looked, so i sold it. bought a recirculated downpipe instead. but i ended up selling that too.
that 20g turbo isnt that wonderful... there are much more efficent turbos out there, and what psi were you running it at? and what were your AFR's under WOT? and looking at your dynograps your car must feel pretty laggy from a dig...
and all i said was lex + 550's = 400hp+ RANGE. never did i say you would automatically be at that level or HP... just that you could obtain power upto that point.
and just to prove that you CAN hit over 400hp with a lexus afm and 550's... heres a dynograph from 2005.... and hes even on a 57trim ct-26...

Yes the elbow is a larger unit to enhance airflow.
PSI was 14.5 with a spike to 18 at Splitfire and 14.5 with a spike to 21 at Victory with new parts installed.
Yeah I have heard about people hitting high numbers with the TD06 20g & auto like Dave Moskovitz who also had a Level 10 built tranny but his I guess was done right the first time and ran like 11 seconds at the track for the 1/4 mile. Mine was slipping and had to be redone but it was slow as malasses off the line. Now it is quicker but still not great IMO. Although manually shifting helps.
Yes Raymond & Nick have awesome Supras and good results but both are manual which I have heard is the way to go. I am 6'5" 300 and have no room to move my feet and have always driven auto so lets just say manual is not an option. I even had the DoLuck RxB that I bought off Dr.Jones removed to give me back the 1 inch of leg room that is stole.
Dan Ponze at GodSpeed told me that he thought my turbo was maxed at the 360 mark on his Dynapack but I refused to believe him when I heard such great results like Dave's but maybe I need to revisit the Turbo department...after I run it at the track in the Spring thou. Well for now at just under $50k I think it's time to stop and just drive it and enjoy it. Next spring or summer who knows. Rennat, Thanks for the tips and info.
Oh AFR's under WOT they said 14-15 on the aem UEGO but I'm hearing 12 should be max what is the down low on that one? I told him to set it up for a realiable summertime daily driver with the odd weekend trip to the track with more 0-60 type street runs.

if your AFR's are at 14 or 15 you'll blow the motor... most around here like 11.5:1 on a daily driver, a lot of "max power" people run 12.5:1 for the extra power...
20g's can run upwards of 20psi... there a pretty decent sized turbo, and you have the tdo6 hotside, so thats pretty large as well.
if you have a STOCK ct-26 elbow thats just "bored" out... you need to get a new one, thats not helping you at all, either get a high flow LIPP one, or get a divorced downpipe. you want a nice big smooth opening on the outlet of the turbo so you dont create turbulence in the exhaust.
you really should go make a WOT pull on video, and record the AEM's readings... because i just dont see how your engine is at 14:1 AFR...

I just called Mark at Victory to check and he confirmed that on the dyno it was at 11.5 - 12 but when I drive or cruise it should be running in the 14-15 range. So all should be fine. Thanks
when you cruise its mostly controlled by the ECU anyways...
11.5-12 on the dyno is fine... i just wanted to be sure for your engines sake!
