My goal is to get as much power out of the stock turbo on pump gas. Whatever that is....I'll find out sooner or later.

is there a kind of chart that says something like ok if you are running at 350WHP you will be running the 1/4 between this and that time but if you have 400 or so you will be running between blah blah blah you get the point... obviously it would have to give you a range due to the persons driving skills, weather, ect ect but there should be a ruff estimate somewhere

I am at 290whp right now, and I think that is fine for open-tracking. Maybe down the road, I will retool the engine, and go for a solid 350, but for now, the suspension is maxed out, and I can't afford coil-overs 'yet', so until i beef up the frame more, there is really no need...

Im running 332hp 308tq at 23 psi on pump gas and 400hp 390tq at 30 psi on race gas on the stock turbo. im thinkin about keeping this set up it friggin rips larger turbo cars out of the hole unless you launch the **** out of it

it would be nice to put down 400 whp on pump gas without sacraficing spool up but i dont see that happening anytime soon

When I first dyno'd the car and it was 219.6, my goal was 300. Then, after a few mods, flash and tune it was already at 295.9. SOOOOO, my goal of 300 was almost achieved on my first try! New goal is 350WHP.

I'm looking to get around 400whp daily driveable, on 93 octane, with none of this fake horsepower nitrous nonsense. So far I'm at 265 hp and 266 lb/ft of torque at the wheels, with just a turboback exhaust .

I'm going for 300~350 and stopping. I've gone nutz before and you need to replace too many components. Horses are cheap compared to tranny, TC, CV's, axels, and drivability.

30 psi jeez!!!! Please let us know how long your engine holds out!


I am about 340 whp right now. I will stop soon I think. What was said above ^ is true. I don't want to tank my driveability, and besides the more HP the more easily and more often **** breaks sooo...
