I wouldn't use them if I where you. Your getting them off eBay right? It's just not enough to safely run 350hp. go to http://www.importparts.com and get 650cc's atleast.

yeah sure,... they may be good enough....dont forget..two other IMPORTANT things that goes along with that....Proper tuning (does not mean callin your boyz over to see if it sounds louder by turning things here and there) and engine management .

It also depends on if your FMU or not, You should definately run the 650cc's. 550cc's are cutting it too close for comfort.

you can definatly get the power out of them but they will probably be running one hell of a duty cycle, you should go a little bigger just to be safe..i would use 550s to make power in the low 300s not the mids...

You mean horsepower at the wheels, correct? 550cc should be good to about 350whp and that is at stock fuel pressure.
