i've seen 200whp n/a k20a3's and alot of 3-350 whp boosted setups. Those were just mild tho i'm sure it could handle 400 or so with a good tune. How long will it last is the real question.

Yea, I was hoping I could get 300whp as a daily driver if I decided to buy this turbo civic si I was looking at. Ive seen b16a's do 350hp with stock internals, so I figured the newer k20 would be even better.

With a good tuner it's chances of lasting longer is better. It all depends on how hard you push it you really cant give a life span on a car with boost its all in how you treat it.

True... How much do you guys think a good tune would be?

Kpro aint cheap I know the unit itself pushes a grand and tuning it would be somewhere around 600-800 ish.

do you think I could get a good tune with a greddy e manage? the car im lookin at already has it, so i guess it might be alright for a descent tune.
