possibly around 220-250whp. All boils down to tuning because that turbo is out of breath at 14psi.

220-250whp at 14lbs of boost is REALLY pushin it from that t-25. Try an get your hands on an s15 or pulsar t-28 (although slightly hard 2 find). Bolt patterns are same so no need to worry about aftermarket or manifold fab.

Try a big stick.:D

The stock CA turbo sucks, your lucky it still rotates. Play it cool until you get something decent on there.
