I'm going to put this nicely before you get flamed.

Search please. It's all over the tuning section.

Hi Dave,
I'd like to thank you very much your your responding. Actually I have been searching around. I am not really looking for what power that other people get with the set up as I listed.
I am really want to know if with TBE, MBC, Fuel pump and Cam is good set up with ECU Flash or other system since the set up with the cam.

Thanks for any response

uhhh yeah... most guys do a reflash when they get cams... but u can get TBE,MBC, and fuel pump w/o a flash... so u might wanna do those first and then buy a some more mods that require a reflash... so u dont have to do it later and then buy another reflash... but if all you want is that setup go for it..

The mods u jus listed is excellent choice of mods for the stock turbo IX. Gettin a flash, mbc, and tbe will yield approx around 330whp dependin how aggressive the tune or boost u set it to ( could be 22-24psi). As for cams on the IX ( there are many and different combinations), its gonna yield about 15-25 whp, but id say jus around 20 whp. SO overall ur whp would be in the range of 350-370.

A SMC alky kit would put u close to 400 whp and its a good mod too.

Actually my goal is just 300-330 whp. However, when I had my stock on dyno and it read 232 whp.
Would you think that I could reach my goal with just
TBE, Fuel Pump, MBC and Reflash?

Thanks

Instead of just a base flash. Get a custom tune and you will hit your numbers no problem

I made 298awhp with a test pipe and intake at 21.5psi tapering down to 20psi.
I tuned it myself however.

I don't think you need to go as extreme as cams, TBE, fuel pump, etc.
I have similar goals as you. 300-330awhp.
On my car I may weld up some new exhaust piping that is 3" but I don't want the car very loud.

The dyno I went to reads 10% lower than other dyno's so I'm pretty confident that things are over 300awhp.

I'm not sure how "into tuning" you are, but what I would do:

1. Wideband
2. Test pipe + 02 simulator (i don't like the anti-fouler method)
3. Intake (filter only or filter + pipe)
4. Boost conroller. I prefer an electronic one. I don't know why people would spend 100 bucks for a manual.
5. Perhaps a catback if you like the noise.

With that and a good tune, you should be over 300.

Moderately incorrect mate. You CAN do that yes, but its not the way to do go about doing things. Turboback exhaust without flash will make the car richer than it already is stock so you end up throwing away some power as well as mileage.
