I am coming in a bit late in the convo and i dont know if the person who asked the question is stock but if you are stock turning up the boost is almost pointless. I bought a apex 2.5 catless downpipe wich is suppose to gain 10 whp and a guy i know had just turned the boost up to 10psi and we went from a second gear roll and i had like 2 cars about by the time we shut it down which was like 70 mph i think.
your right, i should apologize for my rudeness, i was out of line. i can admit when i'm wrong.. now i'll type better english and try to explain how i got to 263hp..you should know that all the plastic pipes under your hood swell ,there fore you actually lose power, so i get hardpipes and no matter what others say you do get horse power increase by going to hardpipes because they don't flex. then exhaust..very small gains but still gains.then the header..few gains here also. for the turbo (t25) was running 6psi when i bought the car. at that time the car dyno'd at 159hp. then i got the mbc and the fuel cut defencer and we got like 9hp for every pound until 15psi. at 16-17psi the turbo starts to lose efficiency, so i opted to stay at 15psi cause i still got power.then i added the other things such as plugs,cai,downpipe,wideband(so i could tune) got flashed,bov,msd ignition, then i dyno'd again and the dyno said 263hp, so then i get some track slips to see how accurate the dyno is. with track times my freind can (estimate)around what horsepower the car should be pushing, his conclusion was about 254 to 258 so thats how i got 263. i'm not trying to bulls*** anyone, i'm just telling yall that my car is pushing good numbers. what would i accomplish by telling you something that wasn't true? not to mention when i'm at the track ..comparing my power against the cars i run.(when its motor to motor). srt4, they push pretty good power, i've beaten a few of them..mustang gt.i've beaten some of them.and if i'm not mistaken, a gt is pushing 240hp but rated at 260hp..i have not beat an evo but only lost by 2 car lengths and all these races are from a dig..so that brings me back to the beggining, it is possible to have that much power in a mazdaspeed. next mod is the forged internals which i have already purchased, then i will go to a bigger turbo, and also on order is my fmic.. 15psi (on race gas) with some small mods can net you (lets say the dyno is wrong ) 240 plus hp. and let me correct myself ..the evo i raced was from a roll at 20. so after all this explaining i'll leave it at that.. and i will post all slips as soon as i figure out how to. once again i will apologize for being rude to you guys yesterday...

well 2 weeks ago i went to the local track a ran a 13.5 @ 101 and on the way home i stopped at the truck scales and the car weighed in at 3142lbs. that weight is including 4 kicker amps , 2 12' subs, custom trunk inclosure made of 3/4 particle board, spare tire and myself. which is the same way i race the car. the gt's i raced were 03 models. don't know what mods if any the gt's had. well figure it out and hand out the guesstimate.mp5jeff said:
101 trap speed, you arent at 260whp, sorry dude...im trapping higher and have less whp(although i did do alot of weight reduction- around 2480lbs) but still...id say you are at around 220...even at the weight you are a 101 trap speed doesn't show 260whp IMO...but oh well i don't want to argue about this.
