300w can be attained with a basic t3t4 you wont have to go overboard. i made 330 with my drag kit.

a 57 trim IS a t3/t4. and yes it can make 300hp. i would get a 50 trim for those kind of numbers.

Just remember you get what you pay for, stay away from Ebay/No Name turbochargers and shiny manifolds.

if you want a fun street car, get a 50 trim. You'll still make 300whp easily, but it will spool up a bit faster. If you want a mix of the 50 trim and the 57 trim as far as power and spool, let me know because that's where the GT3255 comes in....i run one on my 315whp DD

as long as have use quality parts and have a good tune, you shouldn't have any more maintenance than a stock car...
