how much power can a 5m bottom end hold? 6m?

also how much power would a 6m with full bolt ons make?
what about with the ct26 setup on it?

please all advice will help... thanks

I am running a 5m with ct26 and currently its running just about 6 pounds just fine...
there are a couple members (havent been online for a while) that ran up to 10 pounds on the stock internals...
Im hoping to get close to that...probably more like 8 or so.

I dont have any idea how much power I am making.

Once I get all my fuel completely tuned up (bad 02 sensor right now)
I am hoping to get some dyno runs in.
Definitely more power than before.

with driver its safe to say about 3000 pounds or so. I believe stock curb weight is technically like 28xx.

not too expensive to set up the ct26 if you shop for the best deals.

Find my build thread in the restoration/build section. I have a parts/price list.

there are rumors of offshore racing 5m's producing 300hp. Note with offshore racing, that would be crank power not wheel power, as there are no wheels ;)

I still havn't found anything to back this rumor up, so as it stands, it is just a rumor.

There have been 2 6m mk2 supras running 9 second 1.4 miles in the past.
