Every engine is different, only way to know accurately is to hook up a wideband o2 and do a couple runs. Other than that...a good estimate would be what wildacexxx said.

Disco,

I'd recommend using that wideband, like S13240 said. Probably don't want to lean it out...

Where in the 808 do you live? I used to live in Aiea and Pearl City.

You drift at Tantalus? No, wait, don't answer that question...

well an s15 turbo can make power up to 20psi or around there. on stock 370's you wont be able to push much more than 240ish whp. of course there r exceptions but thats more of a standard. its all about the tuning to see how much power you can make.

Actually he will kill is engine if he boosts too much on stock injectors, the turbo will be fine up to 18 psi over that it looses efficiency but you can crank it up to 20 if you like.
