I know Max Cooper was running that turbo/setup for a while. Search around or PM him, he could tell about what it'll make.

I still don't understand why people try to get "big" power on stock-ports. Even with a streetport you will notice a difference power; more-so on single turbo applications. Many have achieved 400hp that your looking for. But go check for the actual dyno graphs and compare them. The RX6 is a smaller turbo then what many here are running to get the big power. Regardless you wont miss the twins with that setup. All i'm saying is do your research and don't cheap out on anything in the long run it always costs more. Goodluck

Your fuel pump is gonna be your limiter. Probably high three's at 15-17 pounds, and that **** will spool nicely to boot!
