There hasn't yet, but we should be seeing some soon. It should be very similar to the R dyno's but I would expect them to show a bit better spool due to the longer gearing.

Mine will be in on the 31st. Tuning with Frank, then dyno after. Probably end of August for some good figures.
My car with EQT turbo vs GTI with DBV2 V1 on the same dyno:
It's an interesting setup. Spools like the Tomioka but makes more power mid/top, spools faster than the dbv2 but makes similar power mid/top
Here’s a gtx3071 gen 2 ball bearing (boss 6 v2) cartridge on e50 corn with fueling. Low end torque is less than the is38 but it honestly easier to drive smooth normally. We left some on the table... new pump is ordered along with a 4bar sensor. Dino was a dynojet on a 90 degree humid day at 500 ft altitude. When driven in anger is runs extremely well.

That looks really laggy for the power levels... especially on E50. What car and what gear were the pulls done in?
Thanks

I went to dig through some logs I did on the test car that would show how our turbo spools on the street. I found this data from E30 testing. This is a 4th gear pull on the road in a 2015 Golf R. As you can see, the turbo hits 27psi by 3040RPM. For reference, on the dyno, I was seeing boost come in about 300RPM later.
I also included the Intake Air Temp reading to show how efficient the turbo is at these boost levels. This car just has a standard upgraded intercooler and intake temps barely move through a full 4th gear pull.

Looking good
If I did not have a bigger turbo in mind for the R I'd definitely consider your turbo. Perhaps the wife's Alltrack would be a good candidate down the road.

So, you ran the turbo at nearly 27psi flat across to redline, and only saw a few * IAT increase? That's incredible.
I seriously can't wait to get it installed and in Frank's hands.
You're getting one of these Jay? Can't wait to see what you think. Thinking about this or Mabo's new smaller ball bearing snail.

I have one sitting in my office right now
Sourced through Frank - he recommends this pretty highly.

What kind of power are you looking for?

Yes sir! I have other pulls in the 28-29psi range with the same lack of IAT increase. And this is with just a standard APR upgraded intercooler. Would be interesting to see it with Mabo's cooler.
Frank sold a few of these turbos now, so I'm very excited to see some results!

For now I am pushing the is38 to the limits w/ some fueling upgrades, boltons and ethanol on the R. I already have a gtx3076r w/ a turbine upgrade on order(700hp capable). I will run stock motor at first and push it as well with some reasonable numbers to keep it somewhat reliable. When it needs a rebuild then my plan is to build motor and open up the new turbo. I was going to throw my is38 on wife's Alltrack until it blows then i will be in a market for a more streetable turbo like yours, with good spool, fast response and good top end. I can't wait to see some more feedback on the EQT turbo.
