I want to make 350-400 whp!

Hello forum, im in search to make my car at 350-400whp! My current set up is 272 cams, arp head studs, sard bov, tomei exhaust manifold, tomei 02 housing, tomei down pipe, megan cat back and turbo timer. It is tuned to 292whp with the mods.

I ordered a gfp recirculating bov.


what else can I do to achieve the horse power I want?


thanks!

Probally can get away without doing the turbo if your talking dynojet numbers.

Full TBE w/ Test pipe, intercooler with upper and lower piping, intake mbc and tune.

Go to the dyno section and look at the different combos that hit 350-400. Mellon just posted like 6 different setups in that range.

a test pipe replaces your restrictive cat for a 3" free flowing straight pipe

I don't know much about the DC exhaust but if it were mean I'd sell the DC and get a something like the Buschur or ETS exhaust honestly. I mean your probably gonna take a hit in the wallet but if you want the best for your car you gotta buy the best.

The Evo has a great community of vendors that really care about the platform. I leave the large import part companies alone for the most part.

the cheapest way would be switching to E-85 and raising boost, u'll get to that hp range easy. Or i used fp green, ams fmic, turboback exhaust, 91octane and made 370whp.
