Hey Guys!

I have a S13 (94) 180sx with sr20det. Current mods are K&N pod, 3inch exhaust from turbo back and front mount. I was wondering if its possible to get more HP by doing other little mods if possible.

Another thing is the 180 is currently running at 15psi, I was wondering if this is a safe boost level and if not then how much lower do i have to go?.

Regards

at 15 psi its gonna drop off before redline anyway.
quickest way to make power is a t3 manifold, a t3/t4, and some fuel delivery... stock sr's have made some big power on that or comparable combos.
Of course, nitrous nearly always gives the greatest bang for the buck....

why not buy a turbo that can sit on the standard T2 manifold like a Garrett Ball bearing GT25 unit?

75 wet shot of nitrous, fogger system , with 12-14 psi of boost, with a fmic, and 3 inch exaust, and a good set of drag tires, will be untouchable...

Underdrive pulley/pulley set...definitely worth the bucks.
