Default Road to 300 hp

Has anyone accumulated a list of PT owners that have tuned their engines to 300 hp, not counting nitros injections, and what mods took them to that level? It would be helpful for those of us aiming for that kind of power.

I will be dynoing soon. I will let all you guys know what power my pt puts out. Basically with my mods and water/methanol injection, i should be in the 300hp arena easy. i would guess that i am about 20hp or so shy of that goal.

I'm broke too, the only parts I've bought new are the Stage 1 and BOV, try the srt-4 sites. Alot more members, same parts better prices...and it seems there are alot of people either getting out of the srt-4 or upgrading to stage 3 and above so mods are cheap.

On Stock exhaust????? water injection to me from the mods you have listed will not help....You would gain more with an open down pipe or at least a good cat-back. H2O is great to reduce knock, but I can't see where you will pick up much hp. the srt-4 guys run it to use hom, but at 18 psi are you really reading that much knock...
