Finally got my car back from Matrix Engineering (a.k.a. Joshua Murray)
in Portland with KE-Motronic and turbo system installed. The results are
very interesting indeed: you can make a lot of power on only 5-6 PSI of boost
on a 2.0 liter 16V engine! (Talk about wheelspin problems... first gear
is almost useless now!) Don't have any real numbers to share yet, but
estimates are 200 HP range, more if I go to 7 PSI of boost which is pushing
the limit on a high compression motor.
I
had to remove my 2.25" exhaust (and replace it with 2.5" system) so I have
that for sale now. System consists of tri-Y header, no provision for a
cat, TT center pipe (it's the older 400 grade stainless), and Dynomax
Ultra-Flo muffler. The header tailpiece and centerpipe union got a bit
mangled on disassembly but nothing a good muffler shop couldn't take car
of. I'm going to go with $300 obo (higher or lower) for the whole
thing. Prefer someone in the Seattle area (as long as you pick it up),
because I don't want to even think about shipping
it.
