Thanks bro, I'll be there almost for certain. See you there.

So GurgenPB, how did the FMIC work out for higher boost levels? Any before/after dynos?

Here's a compressor map I found of the PE1420 Turbo that come with the PE kit



here's Gurgen plugging in the RPM




I haven't done the conversion but it does look right..

Here's the min CFM needed at 14psi and 18psi..

I'll dig up and look at the number and conversion from CFM to M3/min since the compressor map is using m3/min. But just looking at Gurgen's plot at psi above 14psi the turbo is really almost past its efficiency area so not sure how much more you can cool it down if the turbo is almost at the edge. I'm pretty sure the bigger FMIC helped. I'm interested how much improvement Gurgen got.. lol I also bought his old FMIC which has been sitting in my closet for over a year!!!


I just looked at my CFM spreadsheet for our VQ Motor and a quick glance of the PE1420 compressor map. I'll dig deeper tomorrow once I get my good nite sleep.. lol

Thanks for the data. I'm not used to those scales though - by chance do you have the flow lines for the VQ at the various RPMs on a pressure ratio vs mass air graph? If not, I'll do the conversion, but just checking...

Never really care about Mass Air so all I have or at least I like to look at things using pressure. Majority of the compressor map are in pressure anyways.. If you want lbs/min then just multiply the CFM with .069 and you'll get the lbs/min.. I hope we are on the same page here... lol


Here's Lbs/min version..



Code:
RPM	NA/lbs	14psi	18psi
0	0	1.96	2.24
200	0.73	1.43	1.63
400	1.46	2.86	3.27

how does the plumbing work on that PE kit? the charge pipes Y together before the IC?
Interesting.

2.5" deep stock IC is smaller than the stock Vortech IC. I can imagine that thing prolly heat soaked at ~400 hp. The PE kits only make ~450 though right? ANd like stated above, woulda been interesting to get some before and after AIT's as those turbos are prolly pumping some hot air so far past their efficiency.

Gurgen doesn't really frequent the forums much, can't really blame him, every time he trys to educate people they just harass him, oh well their loss.

Currently he is running the intercooler posted in this thread, with a custom Aquamist direct port water injection system being controlled by his MoTeC M800, he and I are the only ones with this setup (custom water injection), except he has me one up on the EMS. (I am controlling my water injection via the HFS-5)

I have no doubts his car will break 500rwhp on 91 octane, without methanol - just water. Currently his car is only road tuned so we don't know the numbers, also it is basically a track car now since he daily drives an A8 L (much easier on the kidneys ) so power delivery and boost response is more important to him than peak numbers.

Hope this answers your questions,

Thanks George. It's still a little bit unclear to me how to represent different IC efficiencies onto a compressor map, or if that's even possible. My sense is that increasing IC efficiency will effectively broaden compressor efficiency curves, but I don't like to make assumptions. I was hoping someone might be able to spoon feed me the answer, but I'm sure it'll come to me eventually. I like the way Gurgen datalogged his runs right onto the compressor map.

FI'd G, thanks a bunch for the data and charts!

All depends on what you want, but looking at the graphs and the datalogged runs, it looks like those turbos are perfectly suited to the track for that engine, at their peak efficiency between 4k-6k rpms.

I got the compressor map from this thread http://my350z.com/forum/forced-induc...ilt-motor.html but I believe the OP (SQUILL) used a VE of 100% to map the the turbo. You can see that above 15psi and at redline of 7000rpm that the turbo is already past its efficiency. I dont use 100% VE, I prefer a much conservative 85% VE since it is really hard to hit 100%VE near redline. Maybe someone correct me if our motor indeed hit 100% VE in the upper rpm. I know it is easier to hit 100% VE with FI than NA but I have read somewhere that 100% at near redline is not an easy task even with FI..

If you follow my conservative 85% VE table then the PETT should still be within the compressor map even at 18psi, if you follow the 100% VE correction then the turbo is way past it's efficiency at 7000rpm.

Because it is Gurgen's thread and he's a well respected member of the community. Gurgen's is one of the most knowledgeable and helpful member in here and my350z.com... Very knowledgeable guy even though there are some haters out there..

BTW, that is not Gurgen in the picture, that is my good friend Kevin. He and I mounted the intercooler for Gurgen originally.

He brought it down to test fit it, then we said fvck it lets just mount this puppy!
