A 2871R will NOT make 400whp. It will put down close to it tho I won't argue that you would need a built SR (head) atleast to make close to those numbers regardless of turbo.

Now I'm not saying it isn't possible I've seen it many times in this very forum people slap a 3071 on a stock sr or KA and tune with a stand alone and put down 350-450hp. But 90% of the time something in the engine fails.

But a 2871R just doesn't push enough air for 400rwhp. Key word in this statement is WHEEL hp.
