What else to support a MHI 18k?
I have one going in early June. At that point I will have:
Fuel injectors (1100) and pump
ETS 4" IC and L/UICP
GS 3 port
MHI 18k, ported
ETS CAI
ETS TBE - V2 quiet
Synapse BOV
Right now I'm at 320whp @ 26psi on a mustang dyno. Another member with this turbo hit ~370whp on the same dyno. I'd like to see if I can hit the 400whp mark - without pushing the turbo to near death. At first I considered E85 as the easy option to get there, but with the midwest variations in mix I think I will be staying away.
What are some other options and approximate gains?
Ported stock exhaust mani
Ported stock intake mani
Cams
Other?
Thanks!

I called AMS and Boostin and they both recommended against it given the cost vs gains. Considering cams are $500+ and I've heard 6 - 10 hours for install plus springs and install you are likely pushing $1500+ for 15-30 hp... Based on that I've decided against it.
