It all comes down to tuning and boost level.

400 + with good tuning. Maybe you'll consider an external in-line fuel pump to help with adequate levels of fuel... also, some sort of aftermarket fuel pressure regulator. Depending on what levels of boost you'll be running, you'll need something like an MSD 6A for ignition. Maybe you've considered quality streetports to really unlock that beast as well. Not a fan of the "huge" turbos as well if you're going for streetable boosting. Maybe a T60, T62, G35, T04... these are common with pretty good combinations of spool and power.

Your amount of hosepower after your setup is really going to rely on your tuner's abilities... don't go cheap on tuning.

And why are you romoving your p/s, a/c, and fan? If this is a street car, you'll be sorry. I already miss my A/C and it's still winter.

If you still have a working A/C, then I would keep it. Its probably 50 lbs of weight and no loss of power whne its not engaged, and its much more comfortable for you. Also, you aren't going to notice the difference in weight with the power that you can put down. I'm taking mine out, but thats just because I don't want to spend the money to get it working when everything is broken.

I'd LOVE to keep my a/c. P/s is overrated, the belt stayed off on my car95% of the time anyways.

I live pretty far north, it rarely gets above 85 here. If that.
Most summer days are 75-80 and evenings in the mid 60's.
But anyways, I think it's pretty impossible to keep a/c and have a front mount IC.

Yeah, the stock clutch stays in until it breaks, then I'll put in the unsprung copper one I have sitting in my garage waiting for it. I think alot of you don't realize how strong some of the stock bits are... especially the clutch. I put down 250 to the wheels last year and had no clutch issues whatsoever, not even close. But if/when it goes (probably a when), I've got a better one to go in.


I wasn't looking for a specific number, more as to some guesses of ballpark figures that are possible. I'm going to run as much boost on 94 octane as it'll take. 15PSI maybe? 20? who knows. I'll push it as far as I can while keeping it reliable.
