You can run about 300whp on all stock internals, personally I made a little better than 365whp on mine.

Custom turbo setup and a custom intake manifold.... at the time.
300 is plenty!! So that is pretty safe?

Oh now don't be too hard on him, even though he does a good impression of you!!!
300whp on a stock SVT motor should be fine, just turn off that knock sensor and add a J&S to save you a lot of time, trouble and money!

ok.....found the right thread this time :| yeah maybe I should make a new thread, I just don't feel like it....
ok, so... does the downpipe replace the flex pipe and cat? or just the flex pipe, or neither? one of my main issue that I've been trying to figure out is if it just connects right to where the exhaust does... at that flange between flex and extension pipe....... yes I have SPI, but I know I will do SVT swap and I wasn't sure about exhaust position and all that..... Tom, maybe you know?
and to be honest, yes I posted this in the Xios feedback thread, but I didn't like it there....

THe downpipe basically gets you back to the offroad pipe. So after the downpipe you will need an offroad pipe aka test pipe, Flex pipe, and then a cat back system!

Some have blow with 200+ hp it will come down to the fuel and the tuner. Some people want the most the can get out of 93 oct but sometimes at the pump it will say 93 but it's 87. Also with time everything will brake if you beat on it. But some safe in place and a good tuner u should make 300+.
BTW ask yourself do you know what your getting yourself into??

I can't believe I am saying this but that's probably one of the best questions to ask yourself when doing this!
