The gen3 is capable of more than 300 whp without replacing the turbo. You will need the usual plus fuel and some type of tuning. An SAFC will do the job but I'd rather go Ems. You will be pushing the ct20 to its' near limit but it can be done. I feelthat the ct20 is a fairly fragile turbo beyond 16 psi but it is capable of 20. A friend claimed he made 340whp @ 20 psi with usual bolt ons on his gen3 plus tuning at sea level. I beleive it is possible and heis a very reliable source. The car was tuned by Noshoes.
