> and ronnie, i wasn’t ignoring the 25, it was always an option, and still is. i’m just trying to figure out the best bang for buck to get me to my goals reliably. cause honestly, i don’t think i’d need more than 350 at the wheels in one of these.

Ya alot do drift their cars…grab a sr20 unless you really despise not alot of torque but its not that bad I myself am building a sr20 redtop gt2871r, pfc, jtw s3 cams, stock manifold extrude and honed, greddy IM and etc. Should be running over 380hp at 18psi thats more than enough I guarantee, i wont be running at 18psi untill I get used to 10-14psi dont wanna go crazy right away lol. From what I have heard 350hp is alot in a s13 especially with no interior and what not so yeaa sr20det can do but if you really are against getting one I would go rb25 from the rb series just my opinion…good luck though
