what kind of management are you running? I would stay under 10 pounds with a good management/tune.

well you would get a much better response if you post this in the Forced Induction forums. But if you are goin to need at least an AFC to control those injectors, and an FMU. Its people that make over 300whp on stock GSR's but they also have a good tune. but if you want a car that you can really depend on for everyday driving, you should just stay around 250-275whp until you get some good engine management.


what is your complete setup? what size turbo, are you using an FMU, are you upgrading the fuel pump etc.?

Get it tuned before you do anything. I'm running a vafc on mine w/ stock internals and I'm boosting at 10psi daily driven.
