Don't those numbers seems off? A cunt hair over 1 bar and the "stock" engine is putting down 200% more than without the turbo? I'm no turbo guru, but that seems way out of the realm of possabilities.
Oh, and running off a different manufacturers ecu is kinda cool.
the motor might have put 111rwhp down naturally aspirated due to running on the dsm ecu made for a turbo, it was probably pig rich and just shittily running.
the numbers are actually about normal or a tad on the low side for KA-T numbers at those pressures. but for the most part normal. i've seen 50 trim t3/to4e setups do ~270whp on as low as 10psi and as high as 13-14psi, and at 15 psi ive seen them do anywhere from 300whp to 350whp.
its definately an interesting setup.
