Default What does it take to make ???hp

Okay, someone asked me what it took to make 300whp on a FWD Eclipse. So i proceeded to say the usual E3 16g, FMIC, injectors, SAFC II, fuel pump, exhaust, intake, bov.

Then his friend said im on crack apparently. He said that you can make 300whp on the 16g,with 15psi, a FMIC,and a good tune.

Anyone want to say what is fact from fiction here?

I ask that only those with actual knowledge on the subject reply. Sorry JP that excludes you lol.

even though i already answered this on AIM, i'll second it here... agreed he'll need bigger injectors, bigger fuel pump, fuel controller, exhaust, e316g, fmic, bov and intake... looks like his friend is the one on crack... oh and about 20 psi , not 15

I know a few people that run that setup and are making 300 hp at the wheels. The only differenceisthey're running closer to 18-20 psi w/ the 16g.

You just proved my point. And in order to run 18-20 psi on the 16g you need fuel upgrades etc...

You could make 300hp w/ 272 cams, 16g @15psi, and fmic w/ a good tune. Also is the 16g big/small or an evo 3 and is itported or cliped?

ok ok ok, also we have to realize that seb's talkin about runnin 300 SAFELY... if ur doin that on stock fuel you're gonna get screwed up the rear... and you dont need cams either... they'd just help i guess
