i ran 400rwhp for a long time and beat the living **** out of my car with no problems other than tires

if the tune is good id say 450rwhp (ive seen it done) but most of the time 420-430 is the break point imo

U'll be close but as long as you don't get over id say 420 then u'll be fine. Just make sure your tune is good. Then save for a new bottom end, then CRANK UP THE BOOST! lol

Good luck soldier

if you want to save money, piece the kit together yourself, buying a full kit is MUCH more expensive.

It really depends on your tune. For me it did not work out so good. It really will be a crap shoot at that horse power.

i'm running a d1sc with exhaust minus longtubes, tb, plenum, 3 core intercooler, supporting fuel and air mods and am over 400rwhp with no problems.

99 GT vert and I installed it this spring so if you have any questions about install or what mods to get shoot me a message.
