Can 175/75 injector hit 600+ rwhp? Yes or NO and why

I know that Dynos are respected about as much as politicians, but that's not the fault of the machine. Can 175/75s make 600whp? Sure. Just use a dishonest dyno.

Really though, with the recent advances in tuning, especially the FICM tuning, and with the advances we're seeing in turbocharger performance and air flow enhancements, I would suggest that it's possible that what was once thought to be an upper ceiling for a particular injector may have changed.

Well said!! :thumbsup:

i guess that guy with the 175/100 just wants to see if they will do better, and again would just like to see what they would do with a stage 3, im thinking we all will be suprised, i know i was, and i like what Idaho350 said, we all need to open our minds just a little bit and just go for it, we all hope for better number for the 175 and 190 guys are running

I have a question, what is the largest turbo setup (compounds included) that anyone has ran with 175/75s either on a track or on a dyno?? I'm just curious what the premise here is for saying that 600hp is not attainable on 175/75s. I know that most guys run these with their powermax or 62/64mm non-VGT or something of the sort. Any info on current 175/75 setups would be awesome

I know Ellerton ran them on his tow rig when he was trying combo's out. He might even still be running them...IDK. But i believe his turbo's were a 62mm with a diverter and a S474 maybe

I thought Ellerton had a 600+ HP tow rig? I swear I saw a you tube video with him towing a big BobCat at over 600 HP.

Right, I think you guys are right but do we know if he either ran this on a dyno and/or at the track??

He does and that's the one. He tried different injectors on the truck. First he had 225's and he said that they were way to big and dropped ICP so i think he tried some 205's and 175's. Not sure what size he has in there now, but i thought that he running the 175's still.

I'm sure he either dynoed it or ran it, but I don't know where to find the info.

Compound turbos?
