[QUOTE="ssrotel, post: 1063794190, member: 125600"] depends on the engine, and setup. i'm running the above mentioned turbo on engine in my honda Jazz/Fit (1.5 L15A1 engine), and it makes, (sorry, i'm from Australia, and we run PSI) 14PSI, (i think that's about 1bar) @ 4000RPM. below 20000RPM, it doesn't make boost, from 2000-3000rpm it makes about 5PSI, (about .4 bar i think), then boost rises quickly. makes 225bhp, @ 303nm torque It's actually very driveable. This is using the standard waste gate setup, you can ask to have it changed to lower boost levels if you wish. Also, every 7PSI, (so about .5bar), is the equivelent of a compression point, and you dont want to rise much above 11:1 compression without forged pistons and rods. My engine runs 9.0:1 pistons, so @ 14PSI it's running about 11:0 compression, were STOCK the L15A1 runs 10.7:1. honestly, if all you want good low down power, then set up a roots type or whipple type supercharger. Easier to install into a stock N/A engine, (you dont have to build an exhaust manifold, all you need is a bracket made to hold the supercharger to the engine), and makes full boost from pretty much idle. since power = torque x RPM, you'll end up with much better lowdown power, meaning you dont need to rev the engine as much, which = potential fuel saving [/QUOTE]
