alright well i was going to wait, but my boss keeps giving me a hard time, saying there is NO WAY i am going to hit 300 whp and 300wtq. I told him i have seen others do it with similar mods, and he says "but they know what they are doing and spend a lot of money" lol i dont know if he thinks i stole my parts or what...but either way...im only going to be running a 2.8 pulley, and all mods in my sig. also i was thinking of using race gas to up the timing by about 3* (currently seeing about 19-19.5 w/ 940ish o2s) a few blips of kr just telling me im right on the border of having just enough fuel but not too lean.

but bottom line, think ill see over 300 whp/wtq? im up for any critisism or suggestions!!!

What was your eighth mile trap?

When I made 309 FWHP (with the kinked IC line) I was trapping between 110 and 111. I'd say with that trap, you're a good ways off 300 whp. If the car is capable of 108-109, you're in the 300 area.

Also, you'll probably want to tune it ON the dyno. Pay a little bit more for an hour of dyno time, and then you'll be able to use the wideband to get the fuel delivery where it needs to be (between 11.5 and 11.7). I gained over 15 HP to the wheels by tuning fuel alone. Went from 920 O2 numbers to 870's (right around 12:1) and gained something like 16-17 whp. That was with no timing advance over the DHP 1.0.
If you get the fuel delivery down to around 11.5 or better, with no knock, 11-12 lbs of boost, and 18-20* timing advance, the car will pull at least 300 WHP. At this point, I'd shoot for that ;)
Good luck! 300 whp ain't easy, but your car ought to have the potential.

yah i would venture to guess that if it wasnt running as rich (im going to guess around 10.3-10.6), and i was running more than 18* of timing, it should be around the 108-110 mark. i just got my o2's undercontrol and am running 20* of timing w/ 0kr, once i get it all squared away, im going to hit the dyno. problem is, with a PT i have to put 40 miles on it after i adjust fuel. so i would need more than an hour.
