With a 50trim and an safc you can reach 300 hp, correct? Not much of a fine tunning but good enough for daily driving. I want a 300 hp daily driver car because i dont have that much time to fine tune, when im still in college trying to pass classes
Like 2gGSX said. Don is using a Meth/Alcohol/Water injection and is boosting 25psi, has all supporting mods and cams. Pretty much maxed out the 16g.

Take any evoIII 16g owner and most don't have meth, cams, or a good stand alone program to fine tune the car. So most won't hit 300hp. Don did and a few others too but they maxed it out. Any more power and they have to upgrade the turbo, a built motor or stroker would help reach more power but why use a evo 16g for a built motor or stroker setup? 50trim can reach 300+hp with less effort and less time.

To the thread starter Paintball. Everyone wants 400+hp but is easier said than done. Do more research before you think you are ready for that power. Also if your on a budget then you shouldn't look into getting big turbos because they do require more supporting mods to use the full potential of a big turbo setup. Sorry to say but I believe that you aren't ready for a big turbo setup reaching 400+hp by the way you are asking questions like what injector size for what turbo. Read and search more, there's a lot of thread topics like this and with your new knowledge you'll have a better idea of which route is best for you and perhaps you'll find that 250-350hp might just be more than enough or not but you gotta do more homework.
