BNR Stage 2 or Stage 3 turbo upgrade?

I want to upgrade my turbo to either a stage 2 or stage 3.
I think i have the supporting mods to run a stage 2 BNR turbo....
Do you guys think i have what i need to run a Stage 2.
And what else would i need to run a Stage 3 BNR turbo..
Im looking to hit around 300-350 rwhp.... at 12-14 psi.. is it possible??

Thanks Steve

Okay, SAFC and 720 secondaries won't yeild you the upper end of your 300-350rhwp numbers.

At 80% injector duty, you're looking at just shy of 300hp.

So, you'll need more fuel to hit those numbers to the wheels.

With your wideband you can tune it however rich/lean you want. Stay below 12's under WOT and you should be good. I'm banking under 12's on your AFR's won't allow for 300rwhp though.

I think, when moving on from the stocker...you should move to something higher then an SAFC2. Something..standalone-grade..or a little less.


Dunno if your running an S4 ECU or not...but, Rtek 2.0 is a very good solution. Also, a Megasquirt is just a bit more, but is a complete standalone.


I'd say..just as jkimbro suggested, running 720cc's all around. Either that, or replace those 720 secondaries with 1000cc's. Otherwise, eh, you won't be able to go over 8psi I'd say.
