I've been meaning to ask you a few questions. I'm a bit old-school when it comes to turbos.
1. Do you know the stock turbo CFM?
2. What's the most popular turbo upgrade (not heavy hp, just a basic upgrade over stock).
3. What CFM does that turbo flow?
I know the turbo, like the FR, is holding the tunes back, I just don't know what part, and studying flow maps isn't my thing.
I'm looking for an answer like "stock turbo flows 400 CFM, and runs out of breath at 4800 rpm, and the most popular upgrade flows 550 CFM and corrects the high rpm hole and lengthens it." |
Dinan and Pure Turbo makes a nice,
hybrid setup, for the M2 N55.. It's the easiest way to add a little pep without having to replace the manifold and all the plumbing, with a larger snail turbo.. Anything beyond that, I have little experience or knowledge on.
My whole thing is and I hope no one takes offense by it, as I'm a friendly, with two N55s; anything over 400hp, is tapping out the mechanical limits of this pump, i.e. motor.
Regardless if it's the turbo, fuel or the actual motor, it's all the same to me, if you want more power, it's better to just upgrade vehicles, that pushing the powertrain to the edge, which it seems the stock M2 tune is already capping out at.
