Boost controler and a good tune then you will be on your way to 275+WHP. How is the idle with that blow off valve??

NICE! is that custom intercooler pipeing? That doesn't look like how the IC upgrade to the stage 0 normally goes. I liike yours MUCH better!
Did you do the install your self?

yeah i got it custom made so there was no need to remove the crash bar at all since i got a good size IC... i got it done for $400 which was way cheaper than the upgraded stage 1 at a custom performance shop

Only so much you can do? Up to the point of running 380-400whp. That's about what it will do before needing to upgrade the turbo to make more power.

Nice numbers for the stage 1.

I doubt that turbo will make 400whp on this car Travis. A few ZPI owners where pushing this turbo at 16-18 PSI and where not making anything more than 375. I believe it was Jester's 1st round of madness , as well as Brett.
