What are you on crack? The GT-RS is good for ~350whp or ~400hp . I had an enthalpy tuned ecu with a very similar setup and it put down ~318whp without touching up the tune with an safc. It put out 341whp @16.9lbs boost with the HKS FCon VPro.

To the two above questions

Ebay parts, a general rule of thumb that anything that is a moving part should not be ebay/knockoff brand. The reason is, if it fails, your whole setup is ******! So, exhaust, if you don't mind sound (and make sure its stainless) go for it, downpipe, it takes alot of heat so if it cracks then you might just end up buying two for what you could've got a brand name one for.

The only ebay part I have is my FMIC, which is okay but search around lots of people have done reviews of installed ebay parts and give their 2 cents.Quote »whats the safest amount of boost to run with a

s14 turbo on a a13 motorwith stock 370cc and walbro fuel pump[/quote]I'd still say 12 psi is going to be about your limit. I'd stay at 10 just so you won't be pushing it, and the extra 2 psi isn't worth the power gain. Those injectors will lean out past 12 psi and you risk a melt down if you push that much air

Bigger injectors you could push to 15 psi, but i don't even know if that turbo stays efficient for that long? Ask someone whos done it before and see what numbers they dyno'd

If your fuel system is up to spec you will not blow your motor with a T25 at 12psi. Get a safc at least and tune the fuel curve and you will be fine.I made 242 rwhp at about 13-14 psi on the T25 with a perfect A/F ratio through out the power band. Running 12 psi I think im getting about 75-78% air flow through the maf according to the safc so 12psi should be perfectly fine.

Hmm, so I am looking for about 350 hp on my setup. Advice on what I need, or if this setup will reach that goal?

95 S14, S13 redtopZ32 maf, 555cc injectors, walbro pump, FMIC, full exhaust

Basically, should I run 3" or 2.5" exhaust? What about the manifolds, are stock alright for around 350?

Also, will the T28 from the S14/15 be good for 350 hp, or which turbo should I go with to get a relatively quick spool, and have a nice powerband?

As for tuning, anyone have any ideas of an easy way to tune? Don't particularly care to spend a hundred plus on a dyno tune, and I am not sure what options are all out there...such as SAFC, AFR, etc....Don't really know what those are, and what they do. It would be nice if someone would do a writeup on those random but quite useful things, and what they accomplish...

the s14 t28 is too small for 350 hp. youre going to need the s15 spec r t28 to get close to your desired goals. cams will help you get to this number ALOT easier. as for the tune, i personally like the ROM tune.

s15 turbo is good for a solid 300whp, maybe 310-320 with a really good tune.

Your best bet for 350whp is a garrett gt2871r .64 trim, z32 mafs, 740cc injectors, (Can be done w/ 550's but 740's are safer), fmic, some cams, stainless turbo exhaust manifold, full 3" exhaust and a rom tune or power fc tuned real time on a dyno by a PROFESSIONAL.

i just got my s13 a safc dyno tune with stock t25 @ 14 psi, hks intake, fmic, piping hot side and cold side, elbow dump pipe, 3 in downpipe and exhaust w/ test pipe. and i made 225 rwhp 231 ft/lbs torque before the tune. after i made 285 rwhp 276 ft/lbs torque. 60!!!!!!! hp gain... to the wheels! And! before the tune under full boost my a/f raito was at 9.6:1!!!!!!

to get in the 400rwhp you dont even need to worry about cams and valves and springs. just metal head gaskets and arp studs. obviously you need basic boltons fmic, 3 in exhaust all the way, piping, intake, etc. your gonna need z32 maf, 740cc or 1000cc(to be safe, if your going e85) injectors. e85 recommended, ive seen almost 40 rwhp and torque gains plus safer and cooler. tomei exhaust manifold, t2871r 64 ar, recommend spitfire ignition coils but not necessary just better for high hp. and most important part is a rom tune, or NIStune but basically do the same thing rom tune cheaper. yea, 400+rwhp easy
