TXR301 Posted February 3, 2017 Report Share Posted February 3, 2017 402bhp's really strong considering the turbo delete! 😂 Having recently had a turbo blow up on me, I can confirm that a G7R with a turbo delete will definitely not make 400bhp.

TXR Sorry OP for the slight high jack. Talking about that how's the build coming along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cj7.5r Posted November 15, 2022 Report Share Posted November 15, 2022 I’ve got a tuner near me that is saying that I can reach over 400bhp with R600, scorpion sports cat + downpipe, res delete and a TT turbo inlet. Would this be safe to run on my 7.5R without an intercooler? thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spoke to APR when they were here in UK doing testing for European fuel and stage 3 about the positive effects running stage 2 even for fast road use in normal UK weather temps. High heat in summer definitely reduces power as you’ll see big timing swing with high inlet temps. Turbo will run happy as it requires less boost to achieve target power levels with cooler denser air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bodyboarder81 Posted November 15, 2022 Report Share Posted November 15, 2022 I’d be getting an intercooler at stage 2…. I ( being mad ) would even consider one at stage 1 to be honest . Just makes sense to keep the charge temps as low as possible for as long as possible whatever . Heat kills engines and no point on skimping if you’re an enthusiast, which most on here are 👍🏼 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you I had APR’s FMIC when I went stage 2 in 2017. I found prior to the install when running APR HO Stage 1 that on track I had big heat soak and drop off in power. Another good install is fitting a Catch Can . I run Racingline’s item and it works really well at any stage of tune. Much cleaner and safer with all the crud being caught in the can.

What about the rest of the parts needed to make it stage2, like charge & throttle pipes or the muffler delete to smooth airflow to the turbo? Going stg2 is possible on budget but my view is your going to get better results using all the right parts for the job, I'm also a fan of sticking with one brand as all the parts would have been developed to work together, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meandmyself777 Posted November 29, 2022 Report Share Posted November 29, 2022 intercooler is not needed for a dyno run to hit 400hp , but if you want it to be consistent its better off having it, and it will help, to give you an example i hve a 7.5r , turbo elbow, intercooler, apr coils, 200cel downpipe, and a simple drop in filter on 97ron fuel got 397bhp , so if your in england you will have the option of 99ron fuel which would easily make over 400bhp on my car, to be honest if its a daily not tracked i dont think its worth the money, if you hve the above mods and 99 fuel it will make 400bhp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
