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

[urbandork]

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?

you dont need any of that extra stuff you listed in your first post.
you have a 3rd gen.
like art said, any MBC, a decent 3" exhaust, and an intake, should be just about all you need to get real close to 300whp.
you have 540cc injectors stock, so you have pleanty of fuel for it.
you dont need any tuning.
just turn up the boost.
IIRC boost cut is ~18psi on the 3rd gen.
run the best gas you can, i know thats a tough one in cali...
91 is all thats available there right?
who told you the 20b is only good up to 16psi...that sounds like the '26 myth to me.
the intake manifold i would avoid till your ready for lots more VS mods..like cams and headwork ect.
