Hi, an idea popped up in my head how would it look like if instead of the big turn signal under the headlights was just a regular trim and the side light was turned into turn signal. Tried to draw it but not the best result. Wondering has anyone done it and has any pictures?

Help What can I realistically expect from my planned B230FT setup power-wise?

2 Upvotes

Hello, I have a 1997 940T, which needs rebuilt. Figured I'd also make it fast, so started collecting parts. Angled outlet 19T, 660cc injectors, IPD turbo camshaft, 3" exhaust, etc...

Also 3" MAF, because I want to retain a "safe" 230whp map from *redblockpowered* on stock ECU for now.

Thing is, I suspect I will be wanting more from it down the line, so the setup is open for the future - custom piggyback ECU, wideband o2 and forged T rods.

Two questions:
What power can I do with these exact parts (+rods for safety) when stock ECU stops being a bottleneck? Someone sometime ago told me ~400 wheel but that's optimistic. AI (yeah, I know) tells me 330 wheel is risking the 19T.
Also - would I need forged pistons to match the rods then? I've heard both people drifting 500hp redblocks on the limiter with stock pistons, and people whos pistons went after simply putting more boost into it. So what is it?
