Those that have it can tell you how it feels. I beleive most estimates will be around 550 HP (at the crank) for what you mention and probably 575 if you upgrade exhaust as well. This is what I've read on various websites. I want to take a ride with some of the guys that have the K16/16G, K24/18G, and GT28s to see what direction I want to go.

 

from EPL's dyno, you're probably looking at a 60-80hp increase on pump (and likely a new clutch)

...you will feel that

 

LOL. Yup. Clutch is a weak spot after the boost upgrade. Package it up.

 

The OP has a tip. He will be fine.

 

doh! RTFQ!

 

PM sent - I'm local.

 

OP, off topic question but did you go to moroso a couple of years ago and raced a red supra?

I remember a car very similar to yours that day, and it was a tip.

 

I saw a movie on 6 between 16g vs 18g and the 18g was let's say faster

 

Ah, but I know of a certain video of a 16/16g tip car pulling a 24/18g 6speed.

But yea, 18g's will flow better so in theory should always make more power than a 16g car with exact same supporting mods.

 

i would also be interested in a ride

 

RFFG no my car was never at a track, owned the car since 2005

 

It's a slippery slope...

I just went through the exact same thing you're going through. I started with an ECU upgrade, then exhaust. Finally, I ended up going with the Stage 2b "Zero Clearance Turbos" from Kevin at Ultimate Motorwerks (UMW). I can't think of anyone more knowledgeable about these cars. He's a straight shooter and won't let you go down an unnecessary upgrade path. He saved me a ton of headaches and $$$

Give Kevin a call
