I have had 2 untuned motors around 300-320 whp not last 1 yr

you are most likely going to be around 10 psi (t3/t4-57) in order to get 300 ....

yeah i hear it's all in the tuning...most likely goin to let evans tuning do that cause it's 20mins from here and probably do internals to hit 300whp but the stock motor isn't doin it for me anymore lol

from what ive gathered, 300whp is the about the limit for GSR stock internals....

of course a good tune helps

I'd bosot any stock b series engine to 300-350whp on a good tune. I'd be a bit more iffy on a B20 but you get the idea
