400 Horsepower on Stock Turbo.
I have to somewhat agree.. On a street driven Evo, the goal is to increase torque and maintaining torque from a lower RPM through a higher point.. Ultimately that results in much higher horsepower, but the focus should be on torque and not horsepower numbers.

Everyone says it isn't worth it to go for that number on the stock turbo but I dont think they are realizing you arent wasting any money doing it. If you decide to get a bigger turbo then you will utilize that turbo much more as well. They are good parts that will work with a larger turbo as well. It is always a good idea to over build everything.. That way you dont throw stuff out later if you decide to go faster. Thats my .02
ps: I am going for 400whp on stock turbo as well. I will probably upgrade it later but it is a winter project to see if I can hit it. Im not going to buy any parts that will be a waste at a later date... they will just help the next turbo get even more power.
I have right now intercooler piping, 3" turbo-back, 272/272, AFC (Will get rid of this later... just had it left over), Fuel Pump, and waiting to be installed is Buschur's Race IC and Magnus Intake Manifold and 660cc injectors. I figure with an EMS I should be close with what I already got.

my set up
272/272 cams
adjustable cam gears
arp headstuds
cometic metal hg
stock fmic
br upper ic pipe
aem short air intake
700cc
255lph walbro
ported O2 housing
turbo back
custom exhaust
hallman mbc set at 30lbs yes 30lbs
stock turbo, stock head, stock block, stock ecu, stock head, stock fmic, stock lower ic pipe
110oct
351.1whp 375.2wtq
next is a br head which shoudl give me close to 400whp on stock turbo AND stock ecu AND stock intake mani
then its on to the fmic.
i shoudl be able to crack the 400whp mark on stock turbo, stock exhaust mani, stock intake mani and stock ecu.
why you ask on the stock turbo? because people will look under the hood and think nothing of it, ohh a front mount, stock turbo, oh and intake. it will leave a LOT of people thinking when you burn them hardcore
