How much power for this setup?


So I bought the car about a month ago, and new to high performance cars in general. And the guy that sold me the car told me he got 340whp 390 torque with the stock turbo on pump gas (showed me dyno charts) which i'm starting to think is bs now after reading a lot.
This is the setup he had when he claims to hit 340whp:
Stock turbo at 22psi
Stage 2 PCM
3 in custom exhaust
BFMIC
external wastegate
HKS2 bov
Graniteli coil pack
NGK 4306 spark plugs
ported exhaust manifold
agp returnline
walbro 255 pump
fuel pressure regulator
682cc injectors
5 layer head gasket with arp head studs
carbon hood, air bag delete kit
tuned with dsp
What would that setup approx get any guesses if he lied to me?
Then this is the setup I'm having now because the piston rings are fried:
AGP Zeta 3.0
Duster's 1025cc injectors
Boomba fuel rail
Eagle rods
JE Pistons 8.5 .020 over
DCR oil kit with windage tray
DCR strap kit
- everything else is the same as above. ^^ only changes
Any ideas what this setup will make running somewhat conservatively?
Any suggestions on what I should get? The throttle body is stock im thinking that? And there is no intake on just a screen and a black spongy type material

dude is full of shiet.

/Agree
390ft/tq is possible but there's no way a stock turbo hit 340whp on pump gas.

Torque yea sure, but he needed methanol or e85 and a hell of a tune to get 340hp out of the stock turbo

post up the dyno sheet

your zeta setup is similar to mine except I'm on E85 and I'm using DCR spec JE's. I'm shooting for a true upper 400 whp but the bottom end is capable of close to 600 whp (trans no so much). I wouldn't buy a Zeta though...
Same built motor on pump...expect maybe low low 400 whp

possible on e85

What's possible on E85? 340whp? Maybe one time in one perfect car with the perfect setup when the stars are in perfect alignment. There's no recipe for a stock turbo car that's even remotely going to produce numbers like that on a predictable, repeatable basis. Especially at only 22psi.

his SN is The Hotness

as long as the dyno is used as intended - a tuning tool for A-B comparisons it will not be an issue. Performance on the track or road course is where it matters.
Lots of tremendous dyno results to report and strangely enough, little to nothing in the way of time slips or ET's.

I also call his bluff. Even with a good flowing head, intake manifold, and the works, it's impossible to hit that on pump gas with the stock turbo and no retune. Sounds like he did a lot of ricer math, or he showed you someone else's dyno to fool you.
You should post up the dyno.
It's very easy to change a few statistics while dynoing to raise numbers in favorable areas.
Some of the dyno ppl I know have skewed test results for cars in which a lot of coin has been dropped on it to make the owner feel as if his/her efforts were worth it.

Dude what retune.its impossible period.you dont need to go into details.
