1275 turbo,how much power?????
Turbo Mini Forums

im hoping to get my mini running tonight, just wondering what the powers going to be like as i havent fitted a bleed valve yet so its ganna be running at 4/5psi standard right??? anyways,the engine is standard apart from s/c drop gears and maniflow 2" exhaust system.


how much power dya rekon it have,and will it be quicker than a stock mg1275 with 'vmax road plus head' which is what i was running before?

one last thing...im welding the pipe to the plenum for the dump valve,do i need to remove the spring on the plenum and block it or just leave it alone????


thanks alot guys

dan

anybody????

94 banans is std

Everyone knows that instructions only have to be read if the thing doesn't work....

thats with 7psi though isnt it mark?

yeah thats what i thought,how much less will it be running on 4/5psi???

and does that standard dump valve on the plenum need to be blocked if fitted an external one to the side of the plenum??????

yes you should block ot the standard dump valve (if you can call it that)

a guestimate is 4or 5 psi boost on standard actuator no ecu..... 50 bhp..ish

the standard dump valve cracks off at around 10 to 12 psi
like jimster says blank it off:
fire a 3/8" BSP tap in and fit a blank

I would think you should see 80hp {flywheel} or so on 4/5psi.

I like bananas to....

Your engine should run a little higher bhp that normal with a hot head and a larger diameter down pipe, run decent fuel and have it set up PROPERLY and you will be safe on 10psi unintercooled.
