best ive seen so far with bolt ons is mid three hundreds at the wheels..

still unsure as to how much boost the stock block and tranny can handle..

until someone can crack the throttle restriction and come up with a standalone.. you wont see anythin past mid threes...


That's still a good amount of power for the family car. Apparently my engine is almost identical to the STi engine and can therefore handle about 460 at the crank (some have taken the stock block to almost 600 at the wheels with good tuning) with no headaches.



Here's what I have:





The graph is before and after the turbo install. The turbo, intercooler, injectors, fuel pump, intake, etc... were all installed at the same time by TDC Tuning.

I need to beef up the clutch and maybe the transmission before it gets any more power.
