How much HP have you squeezed out of a DRAG Turbo Kit?
Just wondering. I'm talking stock, straight out of the box with no mods to the kit itself. I'm gonna try to squeeze out 400 WHP out of it. What do you think?
The engine I have is a 2.0L GEM block with Endyn 84.5mm 9.2:1 pistons, Portflow Head, Ferrea SS valves, Crower retainers, springs, and rods.
EMS will consist of a Hondata + 3 BAR GM map sensor.

Wait, 400 whp? I think you're going to need more than 15psi. He needs about 450-475hp crank...I'm estimating at LEAST 18psi, even if it's a 2.0L.

VTEC PWRED from Inline PRO laid down 350 WHP from 12 PSI on his GS-R , stock block. Just an inline pro thicker headgasket, 440 cc's, v-afc and some time on the Dyno

So 400 WHP from 15 PSI from a 2.0 should be no problem.

Are all you guys making this kind of boost and power running pump gas? I have a Revhard Kit Stage 2 and just want to run it on pump gas ( 92 Octaine ). How high should I boost my **** on pump gas and what kind of WHP can I expect to make? Thanks.

Wait a minute people, you are telling me you are getting all this wonderful horse power out a Stock DRAG Kit from right out of the Box? That was the origional question, right? Your telling me the Stock DRAG fuel pump can handle that kind of H.P. and Boost??

not 100% sure, but with the DRAG kit you just need to replace a few things for that kinda boost... namely the fuel pressure regulator and wastegate...
BUT the big concern is the engines ability to handle that power, NOT the turbo. A stock block honda B engine on 12psi will survive and still last a while, but on 16psi, 18psi... NO!

So if a STOCK Drag Kit out of the box can handle up to 8psi without fuel system upgrade, then what kind of whp will it put out?

how much more b\c ive seen gsr with teh greddy kit push less than that with the regualr intercooler. i dont like the greddy kit to much for the gsr for the money but its a very nice install
of the box, I've seen ~225whp from GSR's. That's with no tuning and a Greddy catback.
it's actually a lot more than that for GSR's.
