You should get a tune with an aftermarket ecu. The standard injectors and air flow meter will limit the setup to around 200-210rwkw. No need for a bov on an auto. Adjust the boost on a dyno and with a turbo that size you would really want a tune

People spend all this money on bolt ons and havent thought about whats going to be running the hole show?? Defently do something about a aftermarket ecu/injectors (nistune, haltech) before you take it to the dyno.

With the right tune/injectors you would get near 300rwkw maybe more. Depends how far you wanna push the standard Piston/rods Also A cam is a good idear. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Been down that path before. Injectors. aftermarket ecu would be a wiser investment than a bigger turbo.
