I am purchasing a st185 RC 3SGTE that I am going to pick up in Jan., Basically what can I do to reach 350hp with under $2,000?
I already have a upgraded fuel system, boost controller, and am about to purchase a Greddy E-manage ULTIMATE, I plan on using everything that is on car as I can on my new setup. I have already recieved another GT32 turbo that I plan on using on the 3S So basically what can I do to get around 350HP and is my budget high enough to do so? here is a list on my engines mods. I know ALOT of the parts I won't be able to use but what do i need to reach my goal? Thanks for all your help guys... QUOTE Performance Modifications

I would return the SAFC and the e-manage and get a real EMS for starters. I would recommend either a Hydra Nemesis or a AEM as they both ofter plug and play solutions. Then, buy some HKS 264 cams and you should be very close to your goal. That turbo is a TERRIFIC turbo for the 3S but it may have difficulty reaching 350 on pump gas. I would imagine that you will be in the 320-340 range with cams on a good tune (not a crappy black box tune) which will be more than you will ever need in FWD street car - trust me.
