uuuh...im running the stock ca t25 pile of junk. if that helps in some strange way..

i think your right, 350hp sounds like an achievable number with the 2540. you can do wonders with good tuning, maybe a little more. and if theyre free, send one my way.

When I was getting my CA from the devil, he sold me a GT2540, of course I never ACTUALLY got it but I did do some research on it. While it's a little mismatched between the turbine and the compressor, it seems like a decent turbo that should be capable of about 350rwhp, give or take a bit for tuning and other modifications. You might want to check around http://www.sxoc.com I think several people over there are, or have run them.
