The Cheap Build

So i finally got some money together for my car and hit up one of the local shops out here and explained my goals. Which are 500whp and to run E85. So i pretty much have got everything paid for but a new turbo, so i will be running the stock 05 8 turbo, and stock block except for ARP head studs,. So I'm getting Kelford 272, GSC beehive valve springs, APR head stud set, BR street FMIC, 3 port boost solenoid, synapse DV, ACT 3200 clutch, Bosch HighZ EV14 1600cc injectors, and walbro 255. This will be duel tuned but will run E85 all the time. Also i know i will not get 500 out of the stock turbo just have to save for it. Also this is my DD for right now so my tune wont be to aggressive. But i wanted to know what kinda power i should expect??? does anyone have an idea? I am open to reviews about parts but don't bash.

just saying

with a good tuner you should be able to crack 400whp on E85 on the stock turbo. Also GSC S2 cams seem to be the cam of choice around these parts

Some folks on here have gotten gains from GSC S2s over Kelfords. I agree with above. Low 400s is possible depending on tune.

Thats what i was expecting around 400. As for the cams i was going to go with kelford 276/272 but the lift was to high so we went with the 272's i think they will do good.
