Are you sure it is a GT28 turbo in there?
I couldn't even get those figures on a GT30 at 1.2 bar+, on all three separate cars i have had mapped on that turbo over the years

3rd gear pulls are brutal! I am however getting a lot of boost creep in 4th and 5th which requires some slight throttle feathering.
Gonna have to go external wastegate to eliminate that by the looks of it.

Definitely a GT28 Martin.![]()
Unsure of other sizes but Chris reckons theres more to come with a bit more mapping.Haven't even introduced the water/methanol injection yet.
Hoping to push it to about 1.5-1.6 bar over the next few months.

These are all at the hubs.
The 390 was estimated after transmission losses, etc.

Early spool, with plenty of grunt..

I can't wait to see how far you can push things with the water injection involved.

Really glad you are happy with it so far buddy.It was a shame that the car playing ball when going over 1.2Bar.
However,
in the end you got there and have come away with a very fast car indeed with a lot more left in the tank

Once the boost control is ironed out and it can be pushed it'll be a totally different animal again.I look forward to seeing how happy you are with it then haha! You will be buzzing.
Car looks awesome..
A real testament to a lot of good choices and a very good taste.
I hope you enjoy it bud.

Why are you swapping the manifold?
You got something crazy planned or just fancied swapping in a tidy painted one?
