You can get 11 or 12 lbs outta the piggyback, but doesn't necessarily give you a hp range. I was tuned at 10 lbs and only hit 293 whp. There are some ppl who were tuned at the same boost hitting over 300 whp. Depends on the tune, setup, health of the motor, airflow, boost leaks (hopefully should not be any), etc.

It'll require a retune but most of the time it'll only call for minor adjustments. Maybe ~5-8 dyno pulls if your tuner knows what they're doing

If on stock block leave it there not worth it. If your built I don't see why u can't get 4-450 whp as long as u have the right turbo and fuel.
