Sounds about right... Upgrade the cams and retune should put you very close to 400whp at the same boost level...

Or you might wanna just go with a larger turbo...

X2 on bigger turbo. Your set up should do 400 pretty easily.

ITR cams are great and yea prob a new turbo would be a good choice if you are ever going to want more than 400.

Why are you running such odd turbos? I've been on this site for a while and hadn't ever heard of a T67 25g before. Why not run something proven...like a 57 trim or 60-1? Either of those will make the power you want on pump

I'm just using turbos that i have on hand. will be buying 57 trim later on. T67 25g greddy turbo is off an evo stage 3 kit. T67 is TD07 compressor and TD06 turbine. Capable of producing 500+hp.

If it is capable of putting out the numbers then I would swap the turbo out and then turn the boost up a little, either way you're going to need to retune when you swap the turbo so might as well turn the boost up some and get what you are aiming for.

That is since you already have a turbo on hand.
If you can however sell both turbo's and buy another one, I would probably do that.

O.P. the original Hp sounds about right. Said he didnt want to go into head or block but a valvetrain upgrade and some ITR cams or Pro 1s would give him what he looking for little more power without having to up boost. Another turbo option if you wanted to stay around 400hp or so is a 30r or a s256. I think the s256 is a good bang for buck.
