Please search. Go to the SR forum. For 425 you are probably going to need to swap out pistons. Plenty of info in the SR forum that is stickied at the top.

I would be shocked to see that on a stock bottom end. Try it and then you'll relize you should have spent alittle more and just done it right.

with the right size turbo, fuel mangement and really good tuning 425 is not an impossible task.

Ive read alot of posts from people with 400hp on stock bottom end and even some with over 500whp on stock bottom, the car isnt going to see too much driving time. Could anybody give me a few suggestions for a turbo and fuel management

Then you should be shocked to know that Enthalpy made 549whp on stock bottom end red top.

You are correct. But that doesn't mean 425whp is practical. Unless this is going to be a drag car, I see no reason to have that much power under the hood.

If I'm not mistaken, another Niconaut is parting out his SR project. Tonis56 I believe is his handle, ask him for his GT3071r, it should be able to achieve the 420 mark and he's got an AEM EMS for an SR, all new.
