Tim, you know alot more about these cars than I do. That said, I got my information from the MR Controls power primer. According to that primer, the stock USDM 3sgte at 15psi with no other mods gives 200rwhp. Since I indicated that I was only planning to raise mine to 14psi, subtract 10whp to 190. The primer also indicates that you get 2-3 whp from an aftermarket intake and 10 whp from a 2.5" mandrel bent exhaust. This would have me up to at least 202. Keep in mind that JDM ECU is 21 hp higher than the USDM. Taking out the 10-20% loss through the drive train would have me in the 219-221 whp range. Thats with a 2psi cushion for safety because with an aftermarket intercooler, you get up to 16psi safely but according to the primer that adds only another 5whp. So, about 220 whp with room to go up to 235whp safely. I know this isn't exactly scientific but I wasn't trying to inflate the numbers either.

I am curious if you still disagree.

i was unaware of the JDM ECU. it makes sense now >

and i love that power primer, very good start for basic 3sgte modifications. i was planning on getting their hydra-nemisis system later on and convert to MAP sensored instead of AFM, but i guess that all goes to the way-side now >

I wasn't critisizing....real world experience is to be valued over mere reading....

i didnt take your comment as criticism, FYI was merely an afterthought kind of like a friendly PS, sorry if it was taken otherwise.

Piping looks pretty good (hard to get better than that) get a new intake and exhaust manifold! >>
