The thread you pointed to made no claim of a signifigant diff in HP potential. In a car with a s16g and a evo 16g, I would bet on the driver. I do not see a big difference between any of the 16g turbos to justify calling it a worthwile upgrade for you. |
According to this same thread, it looks like 4 lbs more per minute on the Evo3, is 40 + 25 for the new FMIC install = 65 HP gain!
What's wrong with a 65 HP gain, with a minimal risk to your motor to boot?

14B 33lbs/min
16G 36lbs/min
B16G 38lbs/min
Evo16G 42lbs/min
Stole this info from mustgofaster. Mike (vicious) stated that 1lbs/min is about equal to 10 hp so a 14b should go up to 330 hp while an EVO16g should go up to 420 hp. Not sure about the s16g though. I would guess 350 because CVD got 319 fwhp. Add in the drivetrain loss and CVD made around 375 crank Hp.

With a FMIC you could make another 20 to 30 horses I would think.
