That all depends.

Certainly just bolting on a turbo can give 400 HP. That's an easy given.

However if the stock pistons & rods can handle it is another question altogether now. "To date" we know 330ish is safe with a good tune.
Eventually we'll know their "true" safe limits.

Still 330 wheels from a small V6 is impressive for OEM parts designed for general NA applications.



Ok ok Master Demon.

You don't get 400 horsepower for very long by way of just a turbocharger.

I'll agree though. 330 at the wheels is damn impressive for a V6.
