Horsepower Expectation

[apexi287]

ok im just wondering just off the top of anyones head how much HP i should expect from my car..this is everything on my car that is not stock..3" HKS dragger exhaust, 3" testpipe. 3" HKS downpipe, HKS intake, Greddy TVVC MBC set at 8 psi for now i dont really know how much psi i should run, HKS SSQV BOV, and also greddy grex 1.5mm HG and ARP head studs..any thoughts of how much HP that makes would be greatly appreciated...thanks

not much more than stock.

you can turn the boost up to 10 pounds and be safe assuming that everything is functioning correctly regarding the motor it self.

I would say its around 235 to the wheels. my car with similar mods did 260 i think

I'm with Al. 230ish or so.

You could always spend the 75.00 to strap it down and know for sure.

550 injectors, fuel pump,s-afc so u can crank the boost.......

im looking into also getting some gauges ive been told to get boost, a/f, and egt gauges there the main ones i need..what kind would you guys recommend?..autometer, greddy, hks?

autometer makes some good gauges. defi makes awesome gauges. (but you'll really pay for them)

i have a megan racing boost gauge from 935motorsports. it's accurate, and it reacts quickly. thats exactly what i was looking for in gauges. i have a greddy wideband o2 gauge. (dont get a narrowband, it's just for looks, and doesnt really tell you anything)

i'd go with, boost, wb o2 gauge, and egt for starters. then upgrade the stock gauges to better, more precise ones. (water, oil etc)

This is how I went:

GReddy boost, water temp, oil pressure, fuel pressure

Zeitronix kit for EGT, WB 02. (and boost and AFM volt meter if you wish.)

do you have the turbo elbow replaced? ANy work to the turbo? If no to either or both, 230 is the right ballpark. Exhaust is critical. I made 240 to the wheels with a lot more mods than that, simply cause I was (am) still running my NA cat-back after my conversion.........
