what hp numbers should I have

I was just woundering how much hp numbers I should have with my mods? I would like to know before I take my car to a dyno so I know whether or not something is wrong. Also I was woundering of a better turbo that I can bolt up to the stock location. Thanks.

how much boost are you running that will be the determining factor, but depending on boost anywhere from 200 rwhp to 250 rwhp, I found that and safc and 720s isn't the best way to make power on the stock turbo, though they will keep you pretty safe, they also are a bitch to tune.

take it to the track you should be able to get a better estimate that way, I ran a 13.5 at 103 which come out to roughly 230rwhp, thats with only 7 psi, intake full exhaust, street port, and walbro fuel pump

damn how can I hit 300 to 350? I would really like those numbers more. Is this a hard goal from where I am now or is it not as hard as I'm thinking? I don't mind getting another turbo as long as it bolts on to the original location with no extra mods.

what about these turbos that are selling like hot cakes on ebay?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2437284566

is there any modifications to do and is this a good turbo? I would really like one that is fast spooling so that I don't have to wait for ever for it to spool up. THnaks.

yeah there would be way to much lag for a street car, though once on the highway you would prolly rape anything that came close to you, if you concerd about price got with a T04 hybrid it uses the stock manifolds and can produce up to 350 hp

Or pull yours and take it to a local turbo shop. You can use the stock turbine housing and machine it for a larger wheel too. Thats what I have along with a To4B compressor housing/wheel and a heavily ported wastegate with a larger flapper welded on.
