Question What is the max power for the stock turbo so far?

What is the easiest way to get 450whp-500whp from the B58? And is it even possible with the stock turbo? Who would you recommend for a custom MHD tune? I'm currently leaning toward Wedge Performance as they are the only ones I know of that will tune the B58 for MHD.

My current mods are VRSF 4.5" Catless DP, Remus Axleback (just ordered), and having an exhaust shop make me a custom midpipe.

I'm on MHD E30 Stage 2 currently.

How much power is e30 stage 2? And meth should get you to 450 plus easily

It seems we'll be able to reach that with e85. most stage 2 dynos are around 420whp. e85 gives you another 40-50hp.

idk about MHD, but BM3 has a couple tuners doing custom e85 tunes.

This is the max power i seen on stock turbo with no meth and down-pipe so far.....

No flash tune has achieved these numbers with the stock down-pipe. With meth it should easily be a 500whp car if tuned correctly through the JB4.

Define "spooling like crazy". Are you worried about # psi your turbo is making, IATs, manifold pressure...?

BM3 has achieved these. But i'm with MHD, i'm guessing i'll just need to get it custom tuned.

Running 456whp/470tq with stock turbo on a stage 2 tune and meth with e85/91 blend. The tuner said we can probably 475-500 eventually but we’re already almost maxed out at 22.8psi

What tuner? And if you don't mind could I possibly see some of the logs? I'm curious.

I don’t have the logs but the tune was done by Alex at mission performance running their stage 2.5 flash with stage 1 trans flash. I mix 3.5 gal of e85 with 91 and run a 50/50 meth blend via the bms meth kit with an aftermarket HPC meth controller
