Well you can only really spin them to about 1 bar then they sheer apart into a million pieces. Don't remember what hp though.

Most likely you will be getting a rb26dett from a r32 or r33, because r34's are hard and expensive to get due to popularity of the car and too current of a model.

The r32 and r33's are using ceramic turbines. Which poses a limitation to high 11 psi to low 12 psi... but not for very long. So with that...you will be in the ball park of 400 hp...

Now with just stock internals, upgraded turbos, and other bolt on mods...you can top off at 600...but again not too long...

And if you are looking for above 600 hp, start looking at the 2.7/2.8 stroker kits, forged pistons, rods, and much larger turbos.

But if you are wonder what will give you the most hp gains... tuning the ecu will...

With that said... Good luck on your quest to find what's fits your needs or wants.

Nope the turbos can take you to 600 hp but its not wise to ride daily like that. I would say low 500 area would be a bit trying but daily it would work but 450 is safe sitting. If you romp your car. But if you are going to go 600 or more you need a twin plate or tripple plate clutch... The stock one gives at about 380hp the nismo unit stops at 380ps/hp the Super single is done at 400 PEAKED.

Just a sugestion I am a numbers guy too and I almost lost my Super single when I tuned my Rb20 over 400 now I run an OS giken Twin plate feels the same to me but it gives me more of a power area...

600hp are you serious? The most stock twins can go because of the ceramic wheels is a little over 1 bar of pressure (14 psi). People have taken them to 19 or 20 psi but they do not last very long at all. God help you if the car detonates because that will sheer off the wheels faster than a hot knife through butter. Also a stock block rb26 running 600hp is also on borrowed time too. A complete stock motor including injectors, mafs, and everything else would not even begin to see 600 hp before detonating. Stock injectors are 400'ish cc's, so that means that there duty cycle would be somewhere around 150% if you were making 600hp.

So to answer the question you can get close to 350hp @ 14psi on a set of stock turbos. Stay there with them, the car will be a lot of fun. Use your tax return and buy a set of upgraded metal wheel turbos and all supports mods and have at it.
