when we get around to making a kit for the 3.8 which we are just working finding a mock up 3.8 right now, it should push about 380 at the fly wheel. so that should net you about 305 rwhp. not too shaby if you ask me, would definately surprise some people on the street thats for sure.

i hope this help you

could you use parts off the GTP engines?

7 psi we wouldn't throw anything more than that at a stock motor, and of course that is intercooled.
