no intercooler very much in a test setup, no exhuast, cant get past 5psi for some reason but that 5psi is easily availible at 3000rpm in 1st and 2nd, go around a corner with ANY boost at all and it will spin the tyres.
i'd imagine the reason i cant get past 5psi is a leak somewhere in the intake piping, its not particaully secure because of the odd flange on the rb20det turbo, its going to the exhuast shop tomorrow to have a rx7 series 4 intercooler front mounted and custom dump pipe matched up to the current 3" exhuast.
it doesnt feel any faster than the ct20 or the t25 i had on it, but i havent had it over about 3000rpm as it doesnt have a wastegate or exhuast - and if its leaking then it will have a large effect, its also running stupidly rich, i put 8 brand new plugs in it, and during testing (1hr of running MAX) the plugs are black and sooty. so theres a few things to sort out, the turbo doesnt currently have the water cooling piping in yet either so im a bit scared to run it for long.
