like the title says
My little ol car has a GT35R and we max'd it out on the dyno, which caused me to feel that this turbo is already to small.
I will say that 37psi pulls like a runaway rollercoaster on a steep downward decent. Nice open roadways suddenly become very short distances as this turbo propels the car in such a manner that a car can be in front of you well into the distance but before you know it you are getting on the brakes as the rate of acceleration becomes rather dangerous as you quickly erase the distance and find yourself rapidly approaching the car in front.
Torque steer is on a different level, on one occasion at a mere 28psi I had the car literally yank me into the next lane when the boost hit in 3rd gear (which the car is much much stronger in 4th), had a car of been in that lane I would have hit them.
With the power of the 35r behind a built engine pushing a lightened SRT, it has at times made this car a risk to street race in the upper boost ranges...
and the GT35R is to small...
Tranny is stock and axels are stock, though they are new from a 2004, the 2003 axels never broke and they saw well over 100 track passes.
The engine was built by Solid Tech in Albuquerque, Weisco 8:8:1 .020pistons, Eagle rods, DCR studs and gaskets, fully ported/polished big valve race head, 1000cc injectors and many other goodies...
When this engine was built the DCR Stroker wasn't being offered by DCR, if it was I probably would have bought the bottom end kit and left the assembly for Solid...
I have gotten over 1 year of service from this built engine, albeit the car doesn't drive everyday...
Only complaint is it goes thru spark plugs rather fast... as the car has a rather fat and safe tune...
