potential out of sf turbo

just wondering how much power you could get out of the 3100 "stage 1" turbo, i saw the possible stage 2 could produce 450 so how much could the normal set up produce assuming the engines built etc, and second if i wanted 300 hp what internals would be needed and what kinda psi would i be running approximatly? i have an ex if that matters , sorry kinda newbie with turbos etc
thanks
chris

if u want to run b/n 10 and 15 psi, u would need forged pistions at least and u are better off getting valves, springs and retainers. If u want to run over 15 psi, u should get ur blocked sleeved. Actually, sleeving it for 12-13 psi would be safer. You should also get a PnP head, intake mani with bored TB. 300HP is achievible, but u need to have a built bottom and top end, and u will prolly need to run about 15 psi to hit 300HP.

The $3100 turbo kit is good for about 275-300 whp without straining the turbo. If you get the upgraded turbo, it should be good for about 350 whp.

id rather just know what ur planning on doing secret or not, bc im not visualizing a 300whp on stock everything, at 9 psi, and maybe a PnP head, it may be possible, im not doubting u bc we've gone through the doubt stage before, but until it happens.......

Yes yes this is tru.

a turbo Pnp. he DOES of the underdrive pulley, and upgraded turbo and alcy, so I guess it's "possible" but unlikely. I would think the 270 you stated earlier would be slightly more accurate. either way, dyno it up!

yeah, i agree with madwheel and 2001Civic, u will prolly be around the 270 mark. I think that u will have to build that bottom end first and turn up the boost to hit 300hp......but please prove us wrong future. Be the first to do it.
