NEW! Hellion twin turbo "quick spool" dyno graph

[Billy1]

I am guessing the stock clutch won't last very long in the base kit. What clutch does Hellion recommend?

All depends on how you drive the car. As of right now I will be using the stock clutch till it gives out. There are several different options out there from McLeod, Spec, Ram.. etc. I will prolly go with the McLeod RXT or the Ram 10.5 900 when the time comes.

I'm thinking the stock clutch will live for a while as long as you don't run a sticky tire.


Patiently waiting for news when these kits are shipping.

I believe I'm North of you Hellion. Pueblo/Denver. Would the larger turbos be better suited for altitude >5k feet?

IIRC, Helion resides at 5k ft also...which to me requires boost, IMHO.

Yeah, I think ABQ might be a bit lower, but they're up there. I've always said boosted cars bring their own atmosphere, but I was curious the characteristics of the turbos at altitude vs. sea level.

My question is, did Hellion use any correction factor on their dyno numbers?

Top right of dyno sheet says "CF: SAE" ...now whether or not the computer/they actually put in the correct numbers, who knows. BBR tuned a car this morning and it made 580hp / 569tq at 6psi with stock cats/stock exhaust, 6sp manual PP.

Google works wonders...

5,352 feet
The elevation of the city ranges from 4,900 feet (1,490 m) above sea level near the Rio Grande (in the Valley) to over 6,700 feet (1,950 m) in the foothill areas of Sandia Heights and Glenwood Hills. At the airport, the elevation is 5,352 feet (1,631 m) above sea level.

5,280 feet
Denver is nicknamed the Mile-High City because its official elevation is exactly one mile (5,280 feet or 1,609.344 meters) above sea level, making it one of the highest major cities in the United States.

As for which turbo is better at that altitude, I don't know, but you could make a pretty educated guess off the posted dyno sheet.

I'll have some reviews of the kit after I'm done installing it.

Still a long way to go, but this kit fits properly. Very impressed with the quality.
