What turbo are you running? Give more details of your setup.
i'd like to more info... seems a little far fetched to me
18psi and you are only getting 256hp? I know Tibs running less boost with much more than that.

And please don't type all in caps.

Dispell all criticizm... What mods have you done to your car.
Yeah, mods and stop yelling..;):
All right i forgot to shut off the caplock no need to get angry. anyways i know my tib does not have the most hp in the world but i think 256 to the wheels and about 290-300 in the engine is not bad instead of critizing me why not support after all it has stock internals and stock computer not to mention stock ignition i am proud of my work.i feel anyone with a tib has my support may it be faster or slower. I am sorry not be jackass but i dont share my setup but i am 100 % sure the stock internals will handle 15-18 psi.not that it makes a diffrence but here in puerto rico we have a way of getting the most out of our cars. for more info email me at [email protected] :D
You don't want anyone to know how you did it? You came on here telling us that you boosted a 2.0L to 18psi and then aren't going to say how... That is just being rude. None of us here keep any secrets. That is why we post here. To learn from other people's succeses and failures.

You can't waive a bone in front of a dog and then not give it to him. You'll get bit.

I am not trying to be a jerk. Sorry if it is sounding like that. But please don't post threads like this if you are going to clam up and leave us hanging. People who do that become very un-popular around here that do that.
i believe it.. with a smaller turbo at 18 psi (t3super60) that would be about right.. having stock internals with higher compression would boost those numbers even more than having 8.5-8.8:1 decomp plate or low comp pistons..

with proper tuning, fuel management, right octane fuel, maybe alky injection, it would be easy as cake..

tim ran 17psi on stock internals for a LONG TIME.

gary ran 250whp @ 16 psi at 8.5:1 compression.

so 256whp @ 18psi at 10.3:1 compression is buyable.

im not saying i believe this guy, but its easily possible. with the right tuning you can get alot more 'safe' hp out of the beta. or any motor for that matter.

might be stock ignition and ECU, but is HAS to have some type of management piggyback system (emanage, smt6) otherwise i call BS.

with the emanage, ud still have stock untouched ECU, but modified fuel maps, ignition maps, etc. by the emanage, which would make tuning easy.


if you dont wanna tell all mods, tell me this.... just 3 mods

turbo type, trim, size

fuel management system, fuel type

cooling/ alky injection??

allright you call bs fine. i have a cheap ass turbo from a volvo highperformance injectors, vortex fmu, walburo fuel pump, a customs turbo manifold turbonettics waste gate stock internals and stock ecm no piggyback thats no bs i will soon change but as of now i am running stock ecm. 3in exhaust. and a siquencial blowoff valve and a conquest intercooler i did my own mech. 256whp is damn good if you ask me. even do i know there are better but i am working with limited funds. if you still dont belive me come down to PR and see for your self we dont need all that expensive stuuf to go fast. check out carrito.net:chinese:
ok, how di you tune your ECU? did u reflash it or reprogram it?

what size is this cheap ASS volvo turbo?

3in. exhaust is overkill.

FMU wouldnt be good for 18psi range. pushing it there..


just let me in on HOW u tuned this thing. thats where my question comes in. if your turbo size compares to a t3 super60 i can see where you got the power 256whp from. that makes sense. the conquest intercooler would probably support it.. im iffy on the FMU instead of going with an FPR, just let us know how your tuning this thing..

cuz to me, it IS IMPOSSIBLE to just slap a turbo kit on there, run 18psi, on the stock ECU without adjustments..

ACUTALLY IT WAS NOT AN FMU BUT A 12:1 FPR WITH TURBO THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS AN OVERKILL IN THE EXHUST STOCK ECU IS VERY POSSIBLE I AM DOING IT IF YOU BELIVE ME OR NOT THATS ANOTHER STORY VOVLVO TURBO T3 63 . I WILL NOT COMMENT ON THIS ANY MORE IF YOU WANT CALL ME AT 973-818-2628 I CAN EXPLAIN BETTER ON THE PHONE.
holy caps batman..

dood, id call u but i dont believe i have international calling. i am interested in your setup, how its tuned etc.. you dont have to get ur panties in a bunch.. im trying to get info from one turbo tuner to help me, another turbo tuner.. jeebus.. i know you can reflash the stock ECU and reprogram it and then u would have this ability, but i just wanted to know what u did.. maybe i was interested in sending my ECU to u, giving u my specs and getting a programmed ECU to help solve some of my problems..

no reason to get so defensive bro.
Well, as someone once said to me there are really no trade secrets, only better and more sensible ways of doing things. As was already said, there are no secrets here. Juan, I don't believe that keeping your setup secret is going to help anything; whether that's the way in PR or not, we're here to get the community up to speed, so to speak, not just to show what we've done and let everyone play catch-up while wondering about it.

That doesn't do anything for the Hyundai Community.
i understand no problem but i am telling you i did not get my ecu flashed its stock my phone number is a new jersey number plus pr is not international .when i said in pr we do things diffrent i ment we find more alternitives to speed are cars up. but yeah i am down with helping the hyundai community beat the **** out those lazy hondas. well any ways call is a jersey number and what i tell you you can post it to the forum that way everybody can benitfit i apoligize to everybody so lets make it right. oh let me remind you the 2.0 rd block is bullit proof and since the head is kinda low compresion it makes up for it. the number one thing to remember is its not how many lb of boost but the A/F ration very important. 8D
ok, i will try and give you a call today.. i think your tib is MAP tho, so u have a head start right there..

With a 12-1 FPR.. so that would mean 18psi x 12 = 216psi of fuel pressure on top of whatever your base fuel pressure is. What fuel pump and fuel lines handle than sort of pressure?

Not only that but what size injectors... My guess is they are soon to be toast.....
guys, i talked to him on thursday.. the 12:1 fpr is adjustable i believe, from 12:1 or 1:1. right now it is set to 1:1 i know it has different rate settings.. anyway, he has 5 injectors from what i could understand, and is running pretty rich, because of the no piggyback or ECU mods.. he said its not running anywhere near perfect, but its pretty good driving.. has it boosted at 18psi but doesnt beat on it alot.

is in the market for emanage ultimate.

the biggest problem everyone has with the piggybacks without a dual fuel rail or such, is the fact that when adjusted +20% in fuel the ECU corrects intself and leans out to near stock. but if you had no adjustment, and just gave it tons more fuel, it would run too rich and wouldnt have much tunability, but would still be feasable.. it would be jigger rigged, but might work..
