Do you think that a GS300 with the following mods can beat a stock GS400/430?
Intake
Exhaust
Apexi SAFC
Unorthodox Pulley
Unorthodox Cam Gear
LSD
Torque Converter
How much horsepower do you think these upgrades would generate at the wheel and at the engine? I'm thinking all these mods will be cheaper than a supercharger. Any comments? Thanks.

add an ignition and you'll be kickin ***!
Intake - 200 - Dragon
Exhaust - 700 - GReddy
Fuel Controller - 400 - Apex'i
Pullies - 550 - Unorthadox
Exhaust Gear - 240 - Unorthadox
LSD - 900 - TRD
TC - 900 - Precision Industries
Ignition - ? - HKS
this should be enough to get you to around 235RWHP which is = to the GS400, althrough you will most likely only have this power @ high end so the question is will it be as quick..

You mentioned FULLY MODDED yet your list isn't FULLY MODDED.
A S/C GS300 can beat a GS400 slightly, or maybe about dead even. A turbo GS300 with some BPU can kill a GS400 easily but not so easy on a 400 with T/C intake and exhaust. FULLY MODDED turbo GS300 can beat a FULLY MODDED S/C GS400.
It all comes down to the amount of money you want to spend.
The price difference of a GS300 and a GS400 can let you throw a turbo on a GS300 and can beat a GS400. But there are always +s and -s.

Hey Ted. Sorry man. It was my girlfriend's birthday that day. I couldn't make it.
Ok. I'm talking about a non supercharged engine. Anyone else have any different opinions about this? IMO, I think it is just barely possible.

i think it would come close, but im not sure if it can beat it. with all those mods, i think you can put out about as much hp, but i think you still dont have the torque a gs4 has. so maybe high end it will be closer, but low end i think gs4 will still be faster.
