realistic hp figure for turbo before internals
 
i am looking for some numbers in hp on a 5spd turbo supra before going into the engine. of course i am looking for safe numbers i dont want to max out my car one time and then have a scrap engine. so what is a safe hp mark whithout internal work.also what parts are we talking about? boost controller, oversized injectors, maf, exhaust, intake,?????

i recall hearing 500hp but id say you might wanna get new internals before that. id say go the whole yards, pistons, rods, bearing, and maybe even the crank...


most ppl dont worry about the internals untill they start modding...

the shop that i was going to has a "top secret mk3" 650 hp
they told me the stock internals' limits are to 650 hp
and 500 horses is still playing it safe

How many miles are on your car? In its life, has the oil been changed regularly? How many times has the car been overheated?

Point is, unless you rebuild the motor you don't know what you have. A freshly rebuilt 7m probably could handle 550rwhp (with a good tune) but one with 130,000 miles probably won't last long. If you want big power make sure you have money to rebuild the engine after you blow up your hi mileage motor.

Getting to 500hp is easy, making it last is where you'll spend most of your money.

But hey, what do i know...

why would you skip over some of the more important parts of a build just so you dont gotta tear up the engine and spend lil more money? why invest all this money then take a risk of it blowing up? its just stupid not to. and when you get up to that mark, whats left to mod?
