Well, results are inconclusive... We had one pull that showed 505hp / 670lb ft (no that's NOT a typo) at 5000 rpm. Then we couldn't back it up. Blew a charge pipe off, then this, then that...then we gave up. 3 pulls around 450hp / 510lb ft and we called it quits.
Under load, the turbo went into boost as soon as we cracked the throttle...
Boost (and hp) were falling off past 5000 rpm. We wre simply running out of air, so I'm wondering if these 2 turbos are really the same after all.
Time to do some measuring...as there are no markings on either turbo. Won't help much on a twin setup if the turbos are different.
Going to concentrate on getting the twin setup together and getting the 327 built. Guess we're done for awhile.
