GTM TWIN TURBO install at HP Logic

JoeD · 09-26-2009, 08:16 PM

Just to make sure...this is the same setup that made 611 RWHP on the G37 running 12-pounds on 100-octane?

Good job Horsepower Logic.

Questions:

How is the rubber elbow holding @ 7.5psi(the one on the top left of the inter cooler)?

Would that rubber hoes take the heat and abuse of higher boost in the long run with out coming off or get damaged?

Thanks

well tough to tell since so far it has only been a few pulls on the dyno, but it held up fine with no obvious bulging, if that is your concern, it is pretty thick and as for heat, it wont see any more heat than the rest of the plastic/rubber parts in the engine bay.

it is similar if not the same as the parts used in the Injen cold air intakes.

Valentino · 09-26-2009, 11:17 PM

The OEM rubbers, plastics, and the Injen cold air intakes will never go throw the pressure that this rubber elbow will go throw.

anyway. time will tell. and this is an easy fix. exchange it with a metal elbow, for more reliability.

Peace.

well the VQ has .7 liter on the VG, 11:1 compression instead of 8.5. so thats where the power over the VG is coming from.

nice install and power. i was expecting to see more though

So that rubber elbow won't leak air or come off under high boost?

370zdub · 09-27-2009, 02:40 AM

What rims are on this car? They have a great look to them. Also great job with the install looks factory with everything bolted back up. Can't as for much more as far as fit and finish go!

If the clamps are on tight it shouldn't just like any of the couplings

Not at all, not to mention that we supply T-Bolt clamps which are proven hardware for high boost applications
