See, this is what folks are talking about. My friends fully built 3sgte with TD06 would be considered laggy looking at the dyno, 4th gear pull to (
ericdyno.bmp ). But, it drives very much like stock in the lower RPMs. But after 4000RPMs, hold on to your hat, it will snap your neck off. But his MR2 (
Eric ) with the TD06 & 272 lift cams will make boost at 1500+ RPMs too. But at 1500 RPMs it is NOT making full boost, just a few psi. But, it is enough to be close to if not better than a stock 3sgte.
Heck mt stock 3sgte with ct26 will make some boost at 1500RPMs & if I rev the engine I can hear the turbo spooling as well. But, it is not getting a load put on it so it is just the shaft/wheel of the turbo turning around.
At 1500RPMs no matter what gear you are in, will not produce enough "load" to make full boost. You might be making a few psi, but any turbo should be doing that.
For this reason, this is why folks want to see your MR2 on a dyno, it gives a baseline to follow.
I too would like to see what the SS kit looks like on a dyno. Not that I ever plan on getting a kit like this from eBay. But, would like to see the results. Hopefully you will have good results, & keep those good results 1,2,3+ years down the road.
