Default What boost pressure to make 400 whp on a T3/To4E .63 / 57 trim??

Anyone have any idea? I kinda suck at reading compressor maps. The motor is gonna be fully built staying at 81mm and running 9.5:1 compression.

Thanks guys......

I will have my Darton closed deck done in the next week or so---I will be sure to post some pics.

Too many variables to determine this, what about cams stock? headwork? Intake manifold? It can be done, I made 370whp with 14psi but this is a B16A bored to 84.5mm 9.5:1 CR headwork, oversized valves, JG/Edelbrock manifold, my old set up did the same #sw but needed 21psi. New set up is a T3/60-1. I think you could easily make your goal with about 20psi, Earl and Mike aka ninesecrx had a dyno of a GSR motor with a T3/T04E 54 trim and it made 441whp and 367 ft-lb torque. This motor had a good amount of work done too.

Come on Chris you should know......LS of course.
Some more details of the motor:
Stock sized Ferrea intake and exhaust valves. Stock valve seats.
Crower dual valve springs.
Stock LS cams.
Ported and polished head.
Venom sheetmetal intake....with custom oval-ish plenum
Stock throttle body---probably do a bored one later.

Hondata tuned
Fuel system is done....with the exception of the 550's that wont let me hit that 400 mark -- I know I will need 720's.

Exhaust is gonna be 3"...but i want 400 whp on open dp and race gas.

hehe, i wasnt sure what u were gonna build. im building a GSR when my time comes. but id make an educated guess and say 1.5 bar. about 23psi. my car is making about 12.5hp per psi. assuming the turbo will stay effiecient on my stock motor if i added 10psi I would straitline for 400whp, but then again i dont think the turbo will stay as effficient at that boost level. you have a better head then me so it should be easier for u but its still gonna take alot of boost to get there.
