how the hell is he running 342 whp at 17psi? that's amazing, what other mods did the dude have? makes me feel alot better about buying my new 50 trim!
He has a 2G, so it is 8.5:1 compression, which helps a little. He also has a huge AMS FMIC kit, HKS 272s, a 1G throttle body, and a Magnus sheetmetal intake manifold. The car isn't half assed together, so that is usually worth a bit more HP. He hasn't run race gas, so I don't know what it would make at 22-25psi yet. A friend of mine with a T3/T4 50-trim, HKS 272s, Skyline FMIC cored kit that me and him made, stock 2G intake manifold made 329whp at something like 18psi. We were have bad knocking problems though, couldn't push the boost any higher on pump gas, he got some shit gas on his drive to Minnesota. We drained the tank and put race gas in and made 403whp at around 23psi.
