I made 400 on the Stock 8 turbo with 93 so yes I would say its possible for a X. I would say you would need to add cams and head studs to run a high spike, but other then that I would say yes. a 255 fuel pump also.

On pump gas, absolutely not, you will never hit 400whp.

I broke 400whp on the stocker with E85, barely, but on pump gas won't happen.

Maybe if they change the dyno to read 400 sure, otherwise not a chance.

well 400hp, then sure, with all the bolt on's and a great tune on 93, you should be pretty close.

Don't do cams on the stock turbo...not needed.

Mind as well spend the money and get a turbo, less strain on your turbo as well as your engine.

If you go with a Green then you'd be fine with just 800cc injectors.
