more linear power curve

[madseacow]

what causes the 7m powerband to drop off so quick? any way to remedy this?

 

[MRSUPRA]

The CT-26.

 

[spoolint78]

headflow, cams, turbo.

Spend lots of money:dunno:

The CT-26.

werd. the poor little thing wheezes out pretty early....

 

[Anomili]

Get a massive turbo like I did. Then you only need to worry about it spooling before redline, no worries about an early drop off in the power curve.

 

[madseacow]

would an upgraded ct help? I'm not looking for big power, just something a little more suited for a road coarse/drift.

 

[MKIIINA]

get a 57 trim upgrade and clip the exhaust wheel very slightly and youll be good to go

 

[madseacow]

anyone make a ballbearing 50trim upgrade?

 

[Selz202]

Precision used to do a 50trim but i dont think they do anymore. Besides that is not worth it for rediculously small gains compared to the dollar.

 

[MKIIINA]

why do people want to do a dbb on a ct with anything under a 57 trim? your gonna be able to boost at anything above idle.....

Can you clock the CT26 hotside?

 

[madseacow]

don't want the bearings for spool, I want 'em for reliability, same reason I want something under 57. My goal is only 350 rwhp.

yes and no. part of the problem is the CT's turbine + housing choking flow @ the top end.

 

[MRSUPRA]

Yes.. If you don't want the power to drop off at high RPM, get rid of the CT-26 completely. Like the Dr said, the tiny CT-26 turbine side will choke the flow at high rpm no matter what compressor wheel you use. A simple bolt-on turbo like the SP61GT, Bossturbo or any other T4 turbo will allow the 7M to pull hard to redline.
