Did some searching and don't find too many. Can you safely do 20 pounds or so on a fp green with stock internals and supporting mods? How much would be a realistic number whp?
 
Did some searching

No you didn't. This is a well documented turbo.

With a good tune, certainly. Make sure you have adequate "externals". I'll let you search for what those would be. HINT: a K&N air filter is not considered adequate bolt-on modifications. And NO you did NOT search. A search would reveal that the Green puts out about 350 AWHP max on most street type cars, 2.0L and can be improved with meth injection or E85.

When you hear more than 350, someone is bragging about an extraordinary accomplishment.

20 pounds will not be too fun on a 20g/fp green or similar I bet a 14b at full tilt can do better than a green at 20psi. These types (green/20g variants etc) like to see 25-30psi. 26-27-28psi is the usual max magic number these do on 93oct. Learn about boost vs timing...

Crazy setups could get more, but I have a feeling you are not dropping your car off at a crazy shop to do said magic.
 
Are stock internals able to handle 25-28 psi? I was at 26psi on my x but with e85, and I don't want corn fuel this time
 
Stock internals can handle that. I've been running 30 psi through the stock 7 bolt for years. My old 91 oct and meth setup was running 30 psi and 17* timing, flowing 52lbs/min. You need to do alot of homework on tuning. Good luck
 
yeah i could never seem to get into tuning, thats why ive been looking for a good one LOL
 
A local runs a Garrett gt35r on 32lbs with a stock block at 503hp. Just takes a good tune and supporting mods. Good luck
 
I'm curious as to why anyone with more than 350AWHP on a Green/20G/50trim is "blowing smoke" all of a sudden? They are 47-50lb/min turbos and on race gas, methanol, or E85 have found 500whp on more than one setup. The fact that there are hundreds of active users with stock blocks, an EVO3 16g, and maybe some cams making that 350whp easily would lead one to believe that over 400 should be obtainable with the larger compressors. I get that he asked a dumb question that has been answered a zillion times, but at least don't give him the impression that he's gonna be swimming in the kid pool with a Green so that he does something silly like buy a 60-1/Red instead to break that 400whp goal he probably has, he asked in the Newb section at least cut him some slack LOL.

To the OP, bench racing isn't tolerated very well on this forum, so try not to ask roundabout "what HP can I make" question like that from now on. Do more reading on a given setup that you are interested in and then come back with more technical questions if you truly don't understand something such as, what injectors would I need to make the 400whp that a Green is CLEARLY capable of from all of the research that I did? Searching once and reading the top two threads does not count as doing your research this forum has been around forever and I guarantee you that every single question you could ever think of asking has been answered....multiple times. Good luck with the project and enjoy the easy 400hp you'll get out of any of those three turbos...
 
Stock internals have been taken up to 700whp+
For the average joe, I'd say feel safe with a solid setup and decent tune into the 500whp area.

boost pressure does not correspond to what your internals can take since turbos flow vastly different, it varies. As others have said, this is an age old topic that has been hashed over and over.

Anywho, my old laser was around 450whp on its FPGreen at 25psi. Granted that was a built motor/head.

My current car is a stock 6bolt with junk BC272s, still running a stock 2g maf/2g manifold, and a 16g at 23psi and my car is in the 380whp range and runs consistent mid 11's. I'd fully expect to see 400-425whp out of my car if I moved up to a FPGreen (which I've been considering). Just to give you an idea.
