Wayne, like dougal said I did not use his recommendation, I trust the owner of the shop I deal with and believe that the turbo he suggested is better suited than the turbo Dougal suggested. I also think that quite honestly you are blowing this mapping thing out of porportion and it is being used as a marketing tool, I am sure that maps could be made for my turbo but I really don't give a shit - and I bet that our turbos are probably very close to the same thing if they aren't exactly the same. Guys are using used turbo's out of all kinds of cars and trucks and get great results even though they aren't "Mapped" - who gives a shit.
The "mapped" intercooler, jesus, I talked to that same guy and he said stick the biggest intercooler in the space that I could, wow. Bottom line is that the "mapped" is precise, but just a little smaller is great too - if you can fit it. It isn't perfect but it works great. Oh and my intercooler was made by a 5 year old in china and cost me 150 or something bucks for a bar and plate intercooler that is made very well and is way more efficient than a tube and fine that is the same size. How much is the mapped variety that I can't fit in my truck?? - the guy quoted me 700+ USD by the time I got it. I'd toss a few degress out the turbo ( or in) for a 500 dollar savings.
Dougal, I like your calc's and all, they are great but I don't get very technical with this stuff because I don't need to - I have other people do that work for me. You can be knowledgeable and that is great, thanks for the input and advice, but quite honestly unless you build an exact turbo for my truck - moulds and all then your advice is just theory to me as the perfect turbo doesn't exist - only the closest suited. Maybe my turbo is a few percent off what perfection is supposed to be - maybe waynes is better or worse, maybe you can produce the best turbo out of your ass - but I really don't give a shit.
Over and out dumbasses. People who often admit they are smart - most often aren't.
Both of you leave my name out of your posts and keep your comments to yourselves - I never mention your names in anything.
