MD321H supporting mods.
Got the itch for more torque and after searching the site i think the above will do me fine.
I am running a 05 STI UK with PPP that has then had a TSL 333 kit applied. I am looking at running about 360bhp on my standard internals. Is fitting a MD321H as easy as getting the turbo and dropping it off with my tuner for fitting and remap or do i need more? The car at the moment is running a Prodrive exhaust, Green air filter and a upgraded fuel pump. Other than that the engine is standard. Cheers |
I recon it would make that on your set up and would give you headroom for a future power hike when you get board with 360bhp (which you will).
If you can afford it fit some GT spec headers and harvey GT spec up-pipe and you'll probably hit 360-375bhp and start to max out the standard injectors. Anders |
Hahahahaha Nice one fella. This whole thing started with me saying 300 is enough. Then 333 will be enough!
|
can I hijeck a little?
I'm in the same boat,but wanting around 400bhp...what supporting mods will I need? same car,same turbo...or maybe the 321T? Thanks, |
Injectors?
|
Yes injectors, I had to fit a Fuelab regulator to my "pinks", so I could up the fuel pressure in the hope of chasing 400 bhp, to avoid having to buy larger injectors.
HTH dunx P.S. I also fitted a breather delete silicon intake hose for amplified turbo chatter... it worked :) Me = 2.1 for more torque ! |
Running a Md321T on a JDM ver7.
426bhp 369lbsft on Deltadash mapped by JGM Md321T Gt Spec headers Harvey Up-pipe PE 650,s RCM IK RCM Full 3in system APS DR725 FMIC Breather delete. Mapped on a Nurspec which cost me torque, tweek should see more torque mapped on 97ron as its all we get in NI:mad: |
Thanks guys. I was under the impression that the T was better suited for a 2.5. So, looks like injectors are the limiting factor here. What bhp do we think the standard injectors will max out at?
|
T is fine on the newage Sti with AVCS helps to spool the turbo, cant comment on the H as ive never had one, i was a sceptic of the T on a 2litre but JGM converted me lol.
Sti injectors are hit and miss, some make 400 with a good fpr some dont, im running an OE reg with 650,s. Buy bigger injectors and negate the need for a aftermarket FPR. MD321H reads for a good road car, however if buying new get the T. You may want to add GT spec headers etc, if not then the 321H should suit your needs. I would go to a mapper that has mapped plenty of Md series turbos as they know how to get the best out of them. A friend of mine was in a car recently with a 321T on a classic, it was laggy as hell and didnt drive nice. Probably down to the map. |
Hey,
ok cool,could i get over 400bhp with standard TMIC? and would some harveys headers suffice? really don't want to loose that burble! also my magnex de-cat is 3' reducing to 2.5',is that still ok for 400 ponies! thanks, |
It has to be done! Thanks for the info guys.

Several cars out there running that sort of power on a V7/8 TMIC, mate of mine is running 420bhp through a 2.5 system.

My 2 cents worth. I have an MD321H on a 2L 03 STI running 414bhp and 369lb/ft of torque (with splash of methanol). Deffo get the GT Spec headers - they really transformed the H when I added them. Also add Harvey's up-pipe designed for the GT Spec header for some seriously quick spool (my H spools at exactly the same point as a VF35 on a standard car. I'm running the TMIC - fine for road use though perhaps a FMIC might be better for regular track use. Injector size is 650cc. The H on a 2L with correct supporting mods is pretty quick; I recently took out a mate who's used to driving a remapped JDM spec C and he was seriously impressed at how quick it was :)

Nice post. Cheers
|
Take a look at my garage for some ideas.
https://www.scoobynet.com/garage/200...wayner845.html |
My "sickly" engine made 392 bhp using the 321H with Lateral headers and a 3" de-catted APS exhaust, I choose the FPR as they are half the price of new injectors.
Mine is going 2.1 next, so the spool can only get stronger.... dunx |
Wayner, cheers for that. Dunx when you say "sickly" what is wrong with it?

Trev There is only one RR we can relay on here to get resonable figures. The other 2 are crap and operated poorly. |
Generally it's fair to say TMIC cars get up to 380ish and then have FMIC installed to break into the 400's, thats not to say a TM wouldn't surfice but I would be surprised if you found more than a handfull at that level.
I've always squared my results both RR and DD back to my track times at Santa Pod. I think it's important to identify the RR/DD results seprately which you did with your own car of course. Trev:) |
