He has already changed his mind and now thinks no one should make over 340whp on their stock motor, because he thinks that means it's going to blow like his first one did.

ha, wow, does that mean to make 680whp i need two motors in the car?

lol ok... sorry sorry..

i agree and dont with ya.... but i do see ur point.

but back to the question/topic.... as i think u may have already answered...

the ecu can do it... if you have reasons not to go aem, as i have, it will do it, especially the ix ecu... it has a bit more intricacy than the 8.

HOW IN GODS NAME DO YOU blow a motor on 340WHP? Seriously?

2.3 and a GT35R would be a cool daily driver for me becuase I would blast it on my highway commutes but would suffer from some lag. You may want to stick with the stock turbo for a bit or go with a 50 Trim for DD driving.
