ive seen people hit up to 600hp with the 35r and ive seen ppl be only in the 390's to low 400's it all depends on your tune and how much psi your running. I just sold my 05 Evo to buy a 03 evo with the BR 35r and its the fastest stock block evo on record with just modding the clutch etc. Dont make fun of me selling the 05 for a 03 the 05 had alot of problems haha. also, with the stock turbo ive heard of people hitting 11's but why push it that hard when you can just get a bigger snail and be happier? lol

Is it ok for me to run a GT35r on stock block, valvetrain? This next question is going to be very noob like, but, what power level can I expect to be at with that kit? I'd like to squeeze out as much of the stock turbo as I can before taking the leap to bigger and better snails .

well, guys the only thing I can suggest is that you all check and double check for boost leaks and exhaust leaks. I had a couple including one between the turbo inlet pipe and the compressors. You could see the build up on the outside of it. By no means did it turn my car into civic it did help improve my MPG. I see 220-240 again and this is mostly in town driving with the occasional romp.
