I would say an honest 300RW for the boost and 500RW for the engine puts u at 800RW.....Threw an A4 that is some serious power

Good luck... thinking 800-850 but not sure on pushing it to 20 psi. I'd dump some race gas in if your seriously considering 20 psi.

Nick with the turbos we got for you, their is no reason it should not make over 1000rwhp with the auto. All will come down to the tune and whether the heads will stay put.

Whenever your done with those turbos, we have the new ones ready with ETT

I can't beleive some of the people posting 800 or 800 and change. It made that on the 346 at 18 psi., Nick if it doesn't hit the 1000RW I'd be super surprised!!! I'm sticking with my 1072 and wouldn't be shocked to see more! That thing is going to be an absoute monster!

I personally dont see the need to go past 800rwhp unless you have a raceweight of over 3600lbs. 800rwhp has propelled Supras to low 9's and high 8's in auto cars...

well after you posted the viper running 9.8x at 158.00 on 20 inch rims.. maybe there is room for 1000 rwhp on a c5 ..i think NIck will HAVE TO get a boost controller like the ones heffner uses .. i think its speed related.. at 60 you can only make 9 psi or something like that..

here is a link : click on the boost controller in action

We have options, but as of now there is no AEM for the C5.

When I talked to AEM 3 years ago they do have an option...but it involves using the mechanical TB which I wasn't willing to do, so in that respect they truly don't have a C5 option but they have one that would work on a C5. They have a couple of applications where they are using AEM piggy backs on some trucks.


Nick,
All that I have to say buddy is that you better make more HP then me! I will give you a break too if your tq is close to your hp given that you have a tq converter...but if you post up something like 850/1000 hp/tq.....it will be dissappoiting.

Seriously though (hp #s aside) it will be nice to check out your tune on the dyno...and be able to make whatever adjustments you need to optimize the setup.
Have fun playing around.

Please remember the graph below is lower then the one from A&As party.

I hope you're using a box and 96lb injectors (and a great pump(s))....you have enough turbo(s) and cubes to "blow" past 1000rwhp if you have enough fuel.
