Can this get me to at least 350hp?

Hey Guys,

I've been searching, but I can't really get exactly what im looking for regarding the setup im going for.

Would this get me to my power goals of at least 350hp and is it a decent setup?

Ultimate Racing Turboback Exhaust
  • Dual w. 4" single wall tip
  • Metal Cat
  • 3" Long downpipe (o2 housing)
ETS Intake
ETS Intercooler Kit 3.0, 3.5, 4.0 still deciding

I know its just a few things, but if theres anything wrong/missing or any better products I should use instead please let me know.

Thanks everyone!

You will probably need a 3-port and a tune.

Yeah it should be in the range for sure, its all dependent on the car. Each car is different. Most eveyone is getting 300-350+ on varying levels of basic bolt-ons. Use the search function and read in the dyno results on other ppl set-ups. As stated above, get a 3-port with the tune and some guages to monitor whats happening (A/F, boost, etc) would also be benificial. Concentrate more on the pre tune/mod and post tune/mod difference and numbers, dont get so fixed on exact numbers.

This and the mods you listed should get you to it.

You should be able to w/ a tune but I'd put injectors in there as well....I'm at 350whp/350wtq but my stock injectors are pretty much maxed out. I'd get them put in then tune.

No. Not needed on stock turbo.

Do you want 350hp or 350whp? You can get to 350hp with less mods than what you have listed. But either way, you will need a tune.

In fact, I would skip the intercooler, and just get an Upper Intercooler pipe.

thanks everyone!

i will definitely be getting a tune for sure and now the 3 port, i forgot to mention that in the first post, but to clarify 350whp

is there a reason why i should just get the UICP as steinvb12 suggested as opposed to the entire intercooler kit?

^^^because steinvb12 is right. The stock LICP and IC are rather sufficent for the basic bolt-ons you have listed and end goal. The UICP is the weak link because of the flexiable piping under boost. Some ppl complain about heat soak with the stock IC and I would assume so in hot climate areas in the city and traffic or if you track your car often. For a DD the stock LICP and IC are more than sufficent. Upgrading the UICP will help with throttle response and again there is a debate on real "gains". There is plenty of debates about heat soak and the the actual "gains" of an after market IC kits and piping. Just my .02 but I agree with steinvb12 for your goal and application UICP is all you really need, which is the average guy's set up on here.

I made 350 without a 3 port and less mods

make sure you get a tune, you didn't list that up top, so not sure if you were planning on it or not...

^what mods did you have that got you there?
I will definitely be getting a tune, i forgot to put that up there

if i plan on changing my turbo further down the road, would getting the intercooler benefit me then? are there any other supporting mods i should think about getting?

I just wanna make sure I can get as much done as possible because re-tuning everytime i get something really isnt in my budget. about two times is where im aiming at with the change in turbo later.

I would agree with the rest and say with the mods you have listed with UICP, 3 port and tune you should get to your goal but like cubandiaz said the difference from stock to post mods and tune numbers is more important than what the peak hp numbers show on the dyno. Because I don't recall seeing anyone getting over 350 on a mustang dyno on a stock turbo.

UICP is not required

Never said that an uicp was required but is a good bang for you buck upgrade. I forgot to mention if you plan on doing an upgraded turbo later you might want to take that into consideration when you get your downpipe. For stock frame turbos, in my "opinion" the AMS widemouth is the best out there.
