CAn i make my goal with a hidden side mount turbo and how many lbs of boost do you guys think it will take? Take note this is on stock internals.. thanks and please positive feedback only

A T3 50 trim will not support that kind of flow. A T3 60 trim would be ideal.

It would require about 16psi boost (give or take) to make 300hp with that engine. It can be done on stock internals, provided your engine is in good condition (do leak-down test). However, it would be pushng the limits and I question how long it would last. Heat management would be the difficult part. The longer you're on the throttle making this kind of power, the more heat is produced and the more likely you'll melt a stock piston, regardless of how well it's tuned.

Good luck.

Good luck.

he has a t3/t4 50 trim off ebay not a t3 50trim
if its an ebay brand t3/t4 its actually a 48 trim and will support about 400-415 hp at the crank]

if it is an ebay turbo id suggest swaping out the turbine housing for a .48 instead of a .63 or it will be pretty laggy down low

any garret stage 3 housing should fit it
