Here is a reference -- When we built the car for my fiance we were able to get 340 rwhp/rwtq on 91 octane at 14 PSI and did the following:
Selin Translator, Dual Pop/JWT filters
Unorthodox underdrive pulley
upgraded flex plate (you will need this with more power)
"tweaked" stock torque convertor to raise stall
SZ Built Auto Trans
JDM motor with stock turbos/stock manifolds/stock injectors (our old motor had 175k on it and was toast.)
3" SZ Expansion Downpipes
3" - 2.5" SZ reducer test pipes
2.5" SZ Catback
Tuned at SZ.If you do it right, the power is there. We didn't run Q16 @ max boost, but ~400+ rwhp would have been achievable with this setup. Keep in mind things like custom tuning can net you 20 or more rwhp as all cars are a bit different. Do it once, do it right. You can always add more when you have the $$. It will cost you a lot more in the long run if you are trying to replace crap that fails after a year of use. My car may have more power, but hers puts a smile on my face every time I climb in. J
