How Much And What For 300kw?

[RAS]

Hi guys,

Just got my car and have had it tuned with capa flash tuner, typhoon CAI, centre muffler removal, hi flo fuel pump, valve springs and hi flo cat. Currently I'm making 241 rwkw but my goal is 300rwkw. got a couple of questions:

1) I'm getting injectors soon and hopefully a monza or other intercooler. will this be enough to get me close to 300rw kw???

2) My tuner reckons I can achieve 300rwkw with just an exhaust and injectors on top of my current mods. IS this possible? If not, what more do I need and how much will it cost.

3) will I need bigger brakes or a stronger gearbox if I plan to drive the car hard (which I do ) with close to 300rwkw? its a 2003 xr6T auto by the way.

Funny thing is I planned to mod the car only up to around 250rwkw but as soon as I got the current 241rwkw I knew I wanted more and now I'm obsessed Thanks for the advice.

With the Mods you already have all it would take to get your over 300kw is injectors.

The exhaust flows quite well after the cat is replaced with a hi flow unit.

Replacing the intercooler is a good idea, the car will make power easer, an Under battery pipe would be a good idea too.

Big brakes are always a good thing.

Start saving for a Tranny rebuild if you drive it hard.

Like 72 said.Set of injectors will get you there.I ran 300rwkw with those mods with the stock cooler but I later upgraded it.You will need to rebuild the auto and a larger tranny cooler.Even then it will not last forever.

the cooler is a good idea, the standard one will cop massive heat soak and instantly reduce your power in a big way

Did you have a hot shower after the cold shower.....

I got mine about as close as you can get to 300rwkw with your current plus suggested mods, less the muffle removal. I doubt the stock intercooler would stop you getting close to the mark, but as most know it adds consistency and a safety margin for your boost levels/timing/fueling

yeh injectors should see you hit 300rwkw!

so you have centre muffler removed and a hi-flow cat? how does it sound? ive just got the centre muffler removed in my car but I need a hi-flow cat now but I heard it can sound shizenhousen? is that the case?

Mate my car sounds sweet with the mid muffler removed and the hiflo cat on. Love the sound as it sounds normal when driving it in normal conditions, but when I start it up or give it a good hit you can really hear the difference, huge difference! I love it.
