Thats a nice bump in power if you ask me Not to mention only 5 pounds of boost is 35% more power or about another 100 HP, so your looking at around 400 HP with just a little bit of boost, not to mention exhaust mods, intake, tuning, head work etc.
IF you can do it without increasing intake temps.


methanol injection anyone? http://www.snowperformance.net/
