1G-specific Limits of stock intercooler

Howdy,
My 1992 AWD 1G DSM has:
Small 16G turbo
EVO 3 manifold
3 inch turbo back exhaust
Walbro fuel pump
PCV catch can
K&N stock replacement filter
VDO boost gauge
unmolested non-eprom ECU
CFDF clutch
aluminum flywheel

All of the "free" tricks have been done to the intercooler and intake.

On the shelf, I have an ETG and some 550cc injectors.
To make use of these last two things, I know I'll need the AFC, but that will come later

The big money question is: with all of the above, how much crank horse power can I SAFELY extract with the stock intercooler on 93 octane fuel?

Things to keep in mind: I don't want to break lots of drivetrain parts, so my horsepower limit is 330hp. Also, I'm a marginal tuner :P

you wont break drivetrain parts if you dont abuse your car. dont istall the injectors until u get a afc becuase you will just run really rich. the best way to answer your "big money question" is to follow these steps.
1) buy an afc
2)install the egt and afc
3)tune the car
4)take the car to the dyno
5)find out how much power you can SAFELY extract with the stock intercooler
6)go buy a fmic because the smic will be a ristriction
