What's your guess on my ponies with these mods?

Hey guys! Just asking this for funsies... (if that's even a word)

My current mods are in my signature. Here's what's currently in transit to me:

57 Trim from TurboNetics/Performance Techniques
Aeromotive AFPR Kit (from Driftmotion)
Walbro 255 (I actually already have this; but, not installed yet)
Driftmotion Spearco Replica Intercooler (the one that doesn't require oil cooler relocation)
2.5" IC Hardpipes
Stage II Clutch (in hand; but, not installed yet)

I'll probably turn up the boost to a max of 12 psi; but, keep it at the stock fuel pressure until I can spring for the MAFT-Pro and a Wideband. I'll stick with the stock 440's for a year or two then move up to 550's.

Any ideas as to what I'll be putting to the ground? :naughty:

Well the fans give you ricer points, so it increases your RHP, or Rice Horse Power, but they really suck at actually keeping your engine cool, so you lose real power...

The other mods sound fine.

Key points.
Your exhaust is 3" from the turbo back? So no housing? If you have the housing, it's a restriction.

Assuming you have no restrictions in the exhaust, and everything tuned right, 300+ should not be a problem. With the 57 trim in there, perhaps 350 at the wheels... or even more, but you really need the wideband and MaftPro to monitor and control the fuel/engine and keep this motor in a safe AF:Ratio while your pushing it.

At 12psi, you will not see more than 300hp, if that IMNSHO. (It will take 15 to get there, perhaps slightly less on the 57 trim, but it's still the same size housings...)

Good luck, and get the stock fan and fan clutch back on your 7M :) Your engine will thank you for it..

But it's your money.

Wow! I figured I'd see better numbers than those! :aigo:

And yes. My exhaust is FULLY 3" from the turbo back. No restrictive elbow and no cats. I plan on staying where I'll be after the 550's, MAFT Pro, Wideband, and a tune.

At least that's what I say for now. :naughty:

I think my first pull on the dyno before a tune was in place was 214whp @11psi, after tune was 350 @11psi, mods were about the same save for the turbo,ported exhaust manifold and maft pro I was running.

At about 8 psi and a stock ct w/ maft in blow thru. i was getting 260 rwhp.
I would expect you to get at least 300-320 with the 57 trim @ 12psi.
