Getting 280bhp+ From A Normally Aspirated 3s-ge

[IRLRs200]

Anybody know if its been done and what parts are involved? A guy in japan is sourcing me a list of parts that can help me get to this but just awaiting to hear back. Anyone have any ideas?

A lot of head work for a start mate. also forged internals to save weight on moving engine parts.

It is very expensive to get big N/A power.

Thats what i thought, the guy i was talking to about this said it would be cheaper than a blitz super charger kitwhich i was originally going for. Lets wait and see what he comes back to me with!

the main problem with N/A tuning is that once you have reached a certain level and spent quite a bit of money getting there then you can go no further.

At least if you buy the sc'er or a turbo then you can always rebuild your engine in the future and raise the boost etc etc. you have many more options with forced induction than N/A.

Although some people simply just prefer the N/A route. suppose personal opinion has a lot to do with it to.

Would a N/A be more reliable and less likely to cause problems than forced induction?

I's say go forced induction (I do the PE turbo kit which is a good buy)

the full TRD kit which gives 250 bhp is £6k for the parts alone..........also the BTCC team struggled to get more than 273 bhp with quite a lot off dosh being thrown at the engine

Cheers for the info Dave, ideally I'd like to go for the Blitz s/c kit but finding it hard to source on at a decent price

iv got the blitz s/c at the moment and what a difference it made, far more torque and power delivery, i would also like to know if anyone knows any further mods with i could add to my engine on top of the s/c as im not totally sure what im actually running at this time,i was maybe thinking cams,injectors,and maybe fitting a power FC and commander to get it running smoothly, but i need more info on this

i'd say go for the power enterprise turbo.............
