7A-FE's Maximum HP, Read on... Options

[JoKeRkId613]

Ok, they're selling a 6GCelica GT-4 about 4 hours from my house. I think the guy I talked to wants $19,000. The thing is, I looove my car. It's my first car, it looks real clean, real nice. My plans were to keep this car for as long as I could and hook it up since I don't have monthly payments on the car and bla bla bla. I love it, it's reliable. it looks awesome. I always get compliments. My plan was to turbo the 7A since I didn't want to get a 4AGZE or 3SGTE because if anything happens, the 7A here is in A LOT of cars. lol. So I can find parts easy. I've just grown extremely close to my car. The only thing I never liked about it is that it's a coupe. Believe it or not, coupes looks hot in person but in pics, they look ugly, imo. the only reason i liked the celi is cuz me myself used to confuse em with supras before i knew anything about cars.a long time ago. so i can drive the 4 hours, check the car out. i'll be the only one in florida with a true st205. and i think the 3rd in the country. but man. lol. 19,000. i know its worth it. the car is rare as hell anywhere and its fast and sexy and everything. but it'd have to make monthly payments and for 19,000 i always think damn i can get a brand new car wit that. the gt4 only has like 37000 mi tho so thats not too bad at all. or i can turbo the 7a. i know doggy has put down like 200hp or sumthin around there and other people have also. honestly, i know no matter what car i have, someone will be faster and im not trying to be the fastest. im happy with 200 reliable hp. while i have the turbo on the 7a, im going to be building another 7a, maybe hybrid. and putting the super 60 on that to have a 7agte. my question is, what is the maximum amount of hp that you have ever seen on a 7afe. remember, FE. lol. ive seen the turbo 20v 7a. think it had like 300 or sumthin. but im talkin factory 7afe with upgraded internals, the whole enchilada, excellently tuned turbo setup. whats the max hp that i can achieve from a 7afe without blowing it up. lol. ive heard a 3s can have up to like 500hp. ive searched and searched but didnt find anything. maybe im not phrasing the question right. but i just wanna know. this'll help my decision a little more. thanks.

edit: maybe the question should be, how much hp can the 7a block hold before it starts to fall apart? lol
