8-900RWHP to 1100-1200 RWHP
Ok I´m at 8-900 RWHP running mid high 9 at 145-148 mph at 15-17 psi. Car is 3650 lb. I want more power. This is street car driven on pump gas and alcy. Currently I have 402 with 9 to 1 with Tricflow 315 CNC and 92 mm fast intake. I understand that to be able to get to 1100 RWHP on pump gas I will need more flow through the motor or and more CID. For me this will be in 2 or 3 steps. Bigger turbos ( running 2 pc 58mm max hp each 600) , Bigger heeds and intake and then bigger CID. I have not decide in witch order I will do this since this is costly and I do not want to stop driving the car for to long. So what do you all think abot this ? witch order would I gene most? Bigger turbo? Bigger heads,intake or more CID (CID properly last thing to do.)
Thanks
Thanks

All you need is better turbos, dont waste your money on a new or bigger engine, or indeed heads.
58mm turbos are tiny. Exactly what units are they ? What fitment, manifolds etc ?
Pair of 6766's would be a huge step up.

I still have some rum in the turbo but with pushing more psi I need to pull timing do to pump gas . So the gain is not so great.

What intake would you suggest?
It is C6

No matter what route you take then, you're going to have to do something to make larger turbos fit.
They will always be the limiting factor before engine, heads, cam etc etc
Failing that, the only real option for substantially more power is a shot of nitrous.

Me plan is to get the TDK C6 Z06 upgrade.

I hear ya, and yes you might see some gains with engine mods. But never the large gain you want. The turbos will be the limiting factor here. They are just too small for the large motor, and spinning like crazy just to keep going.
In some ways, a much smaller motor and using more boost might be better, as you'd be placing the units in a more favourable part of the compressor map.
But you need bigger turbos, it will be the most value for money upgrade for sure.
