Congrats! Nice to see such great development less than a year after a new motor is on our shores.

Good question. Right now its externally dumped, and its pretty loud. When we do a recirc I will make sure the guys do a decible test.

I have Ben Grahams car doing the same. We have personally bolted on 2 30r kits to both of the EVOX's AMS has been working with and combined they have competed in over 5 different road racing events, done testing before those events at our local road racing track (Autobahn), Gone on Fireball run (3k mile plus trip around the country in a week), and between the two of them they have made over 230 runs on the dyno for 38 different tests...

Thanks for the info Chris! Seems this is an awesome motor

so 35R is same as red on the powerband

This definitely is an example of how not all turbos/exhaust housings/exhaust wheels/compressor wheels/center sections are created equal. Just because it says 30R on it doesn't mean its been tested, re-tested and optimized by the person you are buying it from... Unless of course, its coming from AMS

Will AMS continue to develop the GT30R kit to see if improvements can be to help spool quicker?

For sure, those kits were very early beta stages of our turbo kit that were only posted up as a marker of some of the progress that we were making. I assure you we wouldn't release a 30R kit that spools slower than a 35r kit

Great! Any in-car acceleration videos of either one of these cars?

That spool up is with stock cams too... wow!

thank you !!! We got restrictions around here on tracks I love LR and there is 89 db.
Above that you need a silencer or simply you are disqualified. So i'm loosing what i paid for. Either way . Silencer less hp. leave no race

And this trend getting more and more common.

SO when i will get /because i will

/ the kit from you guys, At least i have to plan , how i will do this.
I might need a resonator to my exhaust etc.
Thanks for look into this .

Aftermarket cams usually hurt spool-up.

Impressive, numbers AMS!

Have you observed this on the 4B11T?

Don't clutter this thread. Send me a PM if you'd like.

Looking forward to the production setup, AMS!

How does this spool Vs the IX with a Bolt on 35R?

Tunerhead · Dec 13, 2008, 10:17 AM

Very impressive indeed! I gotta keep a eye on this as it progresses.

Cams help tremendously, EVO X with Cosworth Cams (Before and After Dyno Graph inside). Increased low end and torque on stock turbo, imagine this bad boy.
