^ I'm not all the impressed for all those mods.

I would expect to hit 400whp on a dynojet by simply adding a green to my setup.

You wont make 400whp on a green and pump. It will only get you maybe 20whp on pump. You need all the bolt ons for that. You are also on 93 where as Aby is on 91. Pretty impressive. I am in the works of hitting 400whp on pump myself.

Every single FPgreen we have installed and tuned has gained well over 20whp on 91oct pump

I am sorry for taking this thread off topic.

I will step out of the thread now...... I do not have a ported exhaust manifold so I can't really provide any useful info.

I just don't think you will see a 10whp increase on the stock turbo. If you do then its probably worth the $65 to have PPI port the thing.

The $65 PPI port is just for gasket matching. They Charge I think $130 for a full port. People spend much more than that on other manifolds that yield similar numbers.

We are talking about IX's. You wont gain 20whp from swapping to an fpgreen with a IX on pump gas. That is on 93 pump too. There is no defending 91 octane. You guys just dont make the numbers 93 guys do. I am not going to argue with you though. Cammed IX's with full bolt ons make around 330whp with 91.

I have a extra manifold sitting in my garage i'll sell for cheap. PM if you want it. I have a ported/coated manifold done by BR waiting to go on. Comparing the stock vs. ported, there is a pretty nice difference.

To each his own. Think what you will, I'll just keep going faster than 99.5% of all the people on this forum that run with the stock turbo, with less mods. Have fun porting

Everyone go for different setups and have a normal life than sittin in their cars. I love my car but I don't need to spend every minute in it. Alot of people get aftermarket manifolds and Im going for a different look at the moment. I will have fun porting cause that is something I can do at the moment.

If you must brag you are going faster than most of the people on this forum, what are your stats
