Hi folks,
Finally!
Finances have come around and it's time to ditch the re-stalled D5 that's in my T right now.
Unknown stall but I'm guessing somewhere around 2400-2600.
Needless to say, it's WAY too tight for my combo.
I've gotten three different stall RPM recommendations now and only want to make this swap once if I can help it.
My combination:
Turbo: PTE-51.
Cam: Ruggles 210/205
Intake: stock, KB doghouse, 65mm Accufab TB, BIG stock location intercooler, 4" Full throttle mass air.
Exhaust: 3" ATR downpipe, external TIAL wastegate, no cat with dump, 2.5" ATR cat-back.
Heads: stock castings, bowl Ported, stock valve sizes, aftermarket springs
3.42 gear
255/50-16 back tires
Stock weight car
100% street driven
Keeping lock-up
Precision Turbo recommends 2800 RPM stall minimum for the PTE-51.
For example:
One shop recommends 2800-3000.
Another recommends 3200-3400.
Both were 10" lock-up units.
I'm swaying toward Pat's, they were super helpful on the phone and seem to be well-liked here on the board?
Thanks for any and all input!
