Comparison of Precision Turbo’s Cast and Billet Turbo Wheel

While at PRI 2008 in Orlando FL last week, the Precision Turbo folks showed me the differences  between the cast wheel in the older designs and the new billet wheel. One of the big differences is the size of the spindle in the center. The cast wheel has a larger surface area. By contrast, the billet design reduces the size of the spindle so that there is less air resistance.

The billet wheel is noticeably lighter than the cast wheel. Less weight and lower air resistance translate to less turbo lag and more power in the low rpm range. This new billet wheel is part of the new HP Technology Series 6262S turbo that was covered here. We at AJP are glad that we upgraded to this turbo.

By the way, you may see the 6262S referred to as SC6262S. This is incorrect. “SC” refers to the “Sport Compact” series. AJP’s older turbo, the SC6169E was in this class. But the new 6262S is not.

When I asked the Precision Turbo folks about this, I was told that it could technically be called the HP6262 but that has never caught on. It’s just called the 6262.

Julio Builds His Motor for More Power

It seemed like it was just last month when Julio cruised in his newly-boosted Honda Civic Si with the AJP turbo kit. In fact, it was last month.

Way back then he had a little over 400 whp. Now he has over 500 whp at 17psi.

Julio added a built motor to his car, known as the Standard Road Monster Package. After putting enough miles on the new motor, he came back to tune it for big power. And that’s exactly what he got when he took it out on a test drive.

The Standard Road Monster Package comes with pistons, rods, race bearings, valves and lots more. By building the motor, we can turn up the boost with the AEM Fuel/Ignition Controller. For now, we kept Julio conservative, but he could turn up the boost even more.

Lexus IS 300 Roars to 517 whp at AJP

Normally accustomed to front wheel drive Hondas, AJP took on the tuning of a rear wheel drive 2004 Lexus IS 300 with a built motor and a Garrett GT35R turbo. Rishi, of Dangerous Toys Performance, built the motor and brought it in to have it tuned.

When the car rolled off the dyno, it didn’t take but a minute for Rishi to test out its power on the now deserted streets at 2:00 am. The customer was also thrilled when he took it for a spin.

Unfortunately, the police were not so thrilled.

AJP - Proud Sponsor of Honda of America Racing Team

When Bryan Johnson of Honda of America Racing Team (HART) asked Doug Macmillan of Hondata for advice on boosting his 2006 Honda Civic Si race car, he was told “AJ Performance”. Over the last two months, Bryan and his team installed and tested the AJ Performance turbo kit.

Orlando, FL Customer Revels in AJP Turbo Kit Power

“This is power. Other turbo kits, they give you a little taste of power, but this is real power.”

Julio could barely contain his excitement as he felt 420 whp and 284 torque at his command. The cameraman next to him could barely contain his intestines, let alone his video equipment.

Down from Orlando, FL in his red and black 2007 Honda Civic SI coupe, Julio was testing the brand new AJP turbo kit installed in his car. Having done lots of research, he concluded that AJP was the place to go.

In addition to the kit, he bought the AJP 3″ exhaust and added the AEM Fuel/Ignition Controller to give him a few extra pounds of boost.

Andre Enjoys AJP Turbo When US Navy Gives Him a Break

When Andre is not sailing around the world in the U.S. Navy, he is enjoying his 2007 Honda Civic Si sedan with the AJP turbo kit in Norfolk, VA. Installed with the help of his friends William and Chris, Andre had some long days and nights in the driveway, but was rewarded with big power - 408 whp and 346 torque.

To top it off, he added an exotic one-of-a-kind airbrush job.

Even among AJP turbo kit owners, Andre is definitely one of the most distinctive.

AJP Turbo Kit Breaks the 8.5 psi Barrier with Help of AEM FIC

Oscar keeps a license plate holder on his dashboard with some very simple instructions:

Get In. Sit Down, Shut Up, Hold On.

This pretty much sums up his car more than ever. He may not have kicked the bottle habit but he’s a turbo addict now. Not only did he get his car back with more power than he had before when he was on nitrous, but he can rest easy that his motor won’t get ruined the way the 100-shot destroyed it.

In addition to the AJP FG2 turbo kit, his car also came with the AEM Fuel/Ignition Controller.  Since the beginning, customers were limited to 8.5 psi of boost. Now we can now turn up the boost and blast out another boatload of horsepower.

Paint Left Peeling Off Shop Walls

If there was one common sound that AJ Performance personnel heard on Halloween, it was ringing. Not the ringing of doorbells by trick-or-treaters but the ringing in the ears caused by a Ligier SCCA Road Race car. Dominic, who lives in South Florida, was referred to AJ Performance by Hondata for the tuning of his Honda-powered car.

Can Ron look any more intense?
