Just read the rest of the thread lol. If you want to stay safe and avoid breaking lots of stuff. I would go with no more than 300whp. And 300 might be pushing it on stock internals, depending on how you drive. Most of these people might disagree with that number because a lot of the turbo cars are shop cars, not daily drivers. 300 is a safer number for someone driving their car daily. Now I drive like an asshole, and I've already started breaking stuff. Just part of the deal of doubling your stock power. Blew out some gaskets, turbo is already leaking oil, transmission is already acting all fudged up. I'm sitting at just about 350whp. My compression is also much lower than stock. Personally, after driving Tut's car, I would recommend staying with stock compression and just not pushing the car too hard. It will save you a lot of money of the pistons/rods, and it will also allow you to have a much more linear power band.

Also if you stay below 300whp you will eliminate the need for methanol injection or E85. You can just stick to 93 pump gas only, which is more practical.

When I drove Tut's car, he had power everywhere. The lag was more or less nonexistant. Which is the opposite of my car. With the compression drop, my car is a DOG under 4000rpms, but when it hits boost it's like a "freight train", quoted from Tut. If I had to do it again, I would prefer the lower power with stock compression and minimal lag. It's more fun that way. It's more practical. Although my highway drives are a blast lol.
