Well right now I planned out what I want to do for my car since gas is going high i've decided to stay n/a, just wondering will this be enough to reach around the 250hp range...
Performance Goal:
Staying N/A gas to expensive for turbo
Rebuild/ Bridgeport
RB Header
A'pexi N1 dual exhaust

sorry if i dont know much about taht setup, but would that setup require a higher octane and potentially lower mpg?

stock tII you could rock 87 octane all day everyday.

but i feel you on teh gas pricing, im currently unemployed and driving anywhere sucks *****

You'd need a P-Port and a proper tune on an EMS to hit 250 whp on an NA....

with that setup, you'd be lucky if you got 10mpg on the freeway.

You want mileage with 250 WHP? Get a TII and an EMS on it. My TII made about 245 whp with a streetport and a Microtech LT8 and still got about 25 MPG on the freeway.

what is your current set-up?since the most i've seen out of a massive streetport is 187 to the wheels w/ a standalone.

there is one more local guy w/ a p-port and a carb set-up that was used for a 1/2 bridge was making 200ish.

you'll have to choose between economy and driveabilty or jerky low rpms and crappy mileage to get power from a N/A.might as well get a T2.
