what bhp wud i be looking at getting out of my manual lwb 300zxtt with a stage 1 exedy clutch, full turbo back exhaust, and a remap?

Featured Replies

[holds finger in the air] - 315bhp if youre running standard boost.

you'd need a conical intake to help the car breathe a bit more.

also depends on exactly what map youre running too

sorry, imrunning about 10psi. i got hks cone filters and blow off valves. wont they turb the boost up when they remap it?? what can i turn the boost upto safely on standard turbo etc and wat bhp will it give me?

Boost is not controlled by ECU. You need either a Electronic Boost controller or a pair of Mig welding tips to increase the boost.

 

13-14psi is a typical safe figure based on your spec. You can expect anything from 340-380hp.

 

Speak to John Dixon, AndyP or DTA for a Remapped/Chipped ECU.

 

To go further it then starts to get more expensive - you would want Bigger intercoolers and Bigger Injectors, but that will only allow a few psi more before the turbos are your next restriction, and if you remove the engine to fit bigger turbos then you would really want to do an engine rebuild with forged pistons at same time.

yeh i know phil well. his garage is half a mile from me.

 

and no im not 350bhp. what i meant was id be happy at that, dont wanna be messing too much.

350bhp is quite a lot to ask on stock tubs/injectors old pistons etc. as leggy said you're looking at 14psi which means hotter tubs & injectors running more or less flat out etc

I agree, thats why i went down the electronic boost controller route, so that i can have 340bhp when i want it and 300( or there abouts) the rest of the time
