how much boost are you running?

mr2_dori · 01-30-2006, 01:03 PM

The potential of the engine is anywhere from 200 - 800whp... I guess it just depends on how much you want to spend.

With your current mods at stock boost.... I would GUESS (guess is used very strongly here) that you are around 220whp.

sorry but i think that guess of 220whp is a little on the low side. the 3rd gen 3sgte had 245 at the crank stock. it does also depend on if you got the 3rd gen ECU also, as im sure there was a little bit of remapping done to compensate for the larger turbo, so if you are still using your stock ecu then the numbers will be down a bit. however with the much more free flowing exhaust system i would say your closer to around 240whp roughly. on the other side though, your cams might be hurting your bottom end.
