stupid i know but i want know what you guys think, 3sgte 275 to 300 to the wheels Options

From what ive read 275 to the wheels (fwd) is what you can get out of a 3rd gen 3sgte with out giong crazy with fuel mang, fmic and other stuff is this ture??? if not what can i expect with simple bolt ons?

im basically thinking of getting some more power from the motor which currently is just stock other then a dp and about 3 ft of exhaust with a race series magnaflow under the shifter area.... yes thats right it doesnt go all the way to the back. (how much whp do u think im running now??)

so ive read that the motor and turbo set up is good for about 14 psi as with anything above id have to worry about knock.

hopfully i can get my hands on a mines ecu as i dont want to fiddle around with any standalone fuel mang., fmic, and would like to keep things rather simple.

what do you guys suggest?

i was thinking dp, exhaust, mines ecu, and an ebc putting the boost at 14 psi, and MAYBE a custom intake manifold like this one http://cgi.ebay.com/3SGTE-intake-manifold-...1QQcmdZViewItem
everythign else stock.

what kind of numbers would you estimate with and w/out the intake manifold??????

thanks?

your missing the point...

you dont need a stand alone, or any kind of tuning, intake manifold, or ecu. all you need to do is turn up the boost. if you want to do it safely, go to a dyno where you will be able to see if what your are doing is safe or not.

you also need to open up your exhaust. the stock muffler is a big restriction.

no no you missed read

i have my stock muffler just hanging there.

my real exhaust system consist of a ko racing DP (2.5") i went with a 2.5 as i thought a 3" would be to big after what manny told me about his 3" exhaust.

after the down pipe i have 2.5 piping which connects to a magnaflow oval race series (straight through) under the car just about where the shifter assembly is.... after that i have it an angle peice which points down to the ground under the car.

currently they are cursh bends but i plan on re doing the piping with manderal bends soon.



wait so all i really need to do is put an ebc on it and turn up the boost???
