Well with aftermarket rods/pistons and a good tuner, you could easily do 300+whp, I'm at 237whp on a bone stock D15B with ARP head studs

I'm shooting for 350-400whp when I do my vitara build in February

i was running a y7 with the vitara pistons and eagle rods. i had mine tuned to 15lbs with a 57 trim. it felt good for what i had into it. the sohc motors seem to hold boost pretty good. a couple of people i know have the same set-up running 20+ lbs on stock sleeves driven daily.

Hey Mopedstud you should contact me since you are in the Inland Empire area too.
We usually make 230 to 250hp on our single cam vtec turbo installs.
