If you want to make 350-400 on a stock ej205 you are going to need a 35r sized turbo. 60+cfm

Good luck!

I wouldn't even put 350 whp thru a new EJ205, much less a 10 year old one.

It's a very well kept motor. Only 60k miles on it. All maintenance is current on it. Running cobbs stage 3 vf39 ots map. Sti pink injectors, vf39, Perrin fmic, hks cat less dp, 3 inch exhaust, uel headers, just replaced the clutch 2k miles ago, Brian crower cams, Walbro 255 lph fuel pump. I don't think 350 would be bad. But I guess I club "classifieds" is a place to come get flamed for what u wanna do for ur car and not to buy parts people are selling

And do something with the transmission. I'm making just over what your goals are. My 3rd gear is a ticking time bomb.

A lot of us have been where you are man, I'm on my second motor, are you prepared to do the same? Anything bigger than stock raises the risk, anything bigger than a 16g on a 205, in my opinion, is an accident waiting to happen.

However, if you insist, 60+cfm will get you there. Just be ready for full spool at 4.5k and a 2k rpm power band.
