How much power with this set-up?

Just wondering if someone could give me an estimate.

Kevin Landers rebuild (3000 miles)

Street Port

3" DP, RB mid, custom 3" cat-back.

24x12x3 front mount

no emmisions

Microtech lt-8

720/1260s

T04e .60 .96

greddy log manifold

will be running about 15-19 psi


any info would be great. I have seen #s for a similar set up doing 403ish HP..

Would it be possible to do around 400 with this setup?

Thanks
---James

You've only got enough fuel for around 390whp.

its not the fuel thats limiting you its the turbo at that psi 390-400rwhp seems right. you should have lots of fuel with a good regulator

Your going to run out of fuel and you'll need to run over 1 bar (14.7 psi) to reach the 400 rwhp mark (more like 18 psi). I'm assuming this is a 57 trim T04E. If its a 60 trim, making 400 whp at or close to 1 bar is possible granted all things in your system work good and are tuned but still won't be too easy. There are so may factors to ones' wheel hp numbers, like which dyno, the ambient temp and humidity, dyno opperator, wheel/tire combo, engine health, fuel used, etc etc etc etc.
