3sge rebuild expectation Options

[3WayStunna]

Hey all, I plan on rebuilding a 3sge engine and im going the whole nine yards....itb's, strokin it, balanced and blu-printed..etc...anywho, i honestly have never, worked on an engine to this extent, (in other words i dont know what im doin), but im hopin that in the process i do learn alittle somn, while at the same time, get somethin out of this.....but thats not my point......if i had an infinite budget, and keepin things, on an all-motor perspective, about how much hp gains could i expect from this?...Ive read, of the beams engine, and several other 3rd gen n/a 3sge's puttin up numbers in the 250's and up, when built correctly, so about how much do yall think i would be able to attain.....please flame all yall want, im still gonna do this, regardless of what anyone says.....im just lookin from some positive input.....

You're expecting too much. FYI... the Toyota 3SG RACE engine in the Altezza only made 250 hp at something like 9000 rpms. You can't realistically jump 50-60hp in n/a trim without a COMPLETE build-up and I mean COMPLETE... from pistons to rods, to headwork, to cams, to electricals, to exhaust tuning, intake tuning, ecu tuning... probably more than you can realistically do... since you had to even ask. Since you've admitted never doing anything like this before... perhaps you should consider taking baby steps...
