500whp, Advice n tips Options

[Azncelica]

Looking for advice on getting to 500whp. Made 412whp 24lbs boost this year, my setup is capable to get to it. Correct me if Im wrong, I think due to me running a 1.8mm thick head gasket, and having to run higher boost, its limits my peakpower. I order 1.5mm, then they told me it was out of stock, I needed to finish my build, so I went with What they got. After tuning it, I send my run file to Koracing, he said, that my tune was not complete. It was set up for safe tune. My set up. 3rd gen3sgte. Forge bottom end, upgraded vave and springs, 264 BC cams
Ems. Hydra Nemise. Turbo. Precsion 50trim 63ar hot side, Injector. 1200cc. E85 fuel. Any advice from anyone who made it to 500whp would be nice. I went with this setup. I want a streetable car with good response and still have good top end power. Thanks everyone

I ran across your old 6gen, I hear lots of things about it. I thought of going with a bigger turbo at first. But I wanted a turbo in between. I ask Ron at Rs motor to increase my redline higher when he tune my car, but instead he cut my max power at 7000rpm. This summer I ran into a guy with a mr2, full build, tune, running a 6267 turbo, he claim shy of 500whp, we did some hwy pull to test our set up. I pull on him from40, i,50,60,75 mhp. He didnt even stand s chance. Turbo lagg was so bad on that setup. My buddy Rx7 with Gt35, he made 390whp, full build. The lagg on his car was bad,
This coming year, Ill retune first, see where that get me. Again I havent max out my setup yet. I was very suprise myself how well this setup perform on the street, Only thing I regret is going with a thicker head gasket. It kill my boost response. Hope to see you this summer sometime, your should come to ricekiller meet. Thanks everyone for your input.

HAHA it wasnt all that ..my old 6th gen... not even sure how its doing now havent talk to the dude that bought it for a bit, last i heard he needed an axle and the motor wasnt doing so well


if i was to do another one i would go all out and plan everything out accordling, i do plan if i could get my hands on a clean 6gen without a motor do a rwd conversion. was thinking of using the is300 rear diff and have a custom drive shaft, if possible see if i could turn the motor. its all still in the works and plans..have to make a custome plate for the bell housing for whatever tranny i could get to work and cut the fire wall and whatever.
i would love to actually get my hands on a 7th gen and do what fensport did a few years back: AWD, 3S SWAP . i think it would be kinda of wicked...just cant get myself to actaully pick up a FWD again..
