I was wondering how much power you guys think I could make with this set-up but with bigger turbo and injectors. I was told all I need is bigger injectors and turbo and I could make a lot more power. But I’m here to ask you guys how much power have you guys made with similar setup (but with a bigger turbo and injectors)

Currently making 375hp on pump with a “reliable” (not tuned for max power)

New OEM valve seals
GSC 1mm oversize intake valves
GSC 1mm oversize Super alloy exhaust valves
Ferrea dual valve springs and retainers

All new OEM engine gaskets
Mishimoto full size aluminum radiator
Slim profile radiator fan
3.5” full exhaust
ACT 6-puck sprung clutch
Prosport carbon fiber hood dampener kit
AEM Wideband UEGO Air/Fuel ratio gauge

AEM boost gauge

Fuel system:

You are going to make the same as every other bolt on stock turbo evo. On E85 you should be able to crack into the 400’s given that you upgrade your injectors.

I meant, how much do you think I could make if I upgraded to a bigger turbo and injectors. I want to go bigger turbo and injectors but don’t know how big I can go. Like what’s the biggest turbo and injectors you think I could run and what power you think it would make? Sorry I didn’t really phrase that too well.

from your parts list you have a very nice build. You could really do whatever you want with it. I would speak to your builder/tuner and let them guide you. Do you have a certain power goal?

My goal is to make 550-600 with just bigger turbo and injectors but not too sure if that’s possible 😂

Pump or E85? Both? Get an FP red or an FP black + large injectors and a bigger fuel pump. You have a built engine, you can make far more than that if you wanted. Your power goals are a really fun level for a street evo.
