For starters, a stock GTT makes about 170 kilowatts I think which is around the 230 HP mark anyway so you might even achieve your goal of 300 HP with some minor upgrades such as better airfilter, intercooler, exhaust and a good tune so you may not need a bigger turbo upgrade as your goal is fairly low.

Having $4,000 is a good start. But if you’re chasing bigger power,  I suggest you look up some performance workshops and ask them for prices on some turbo combo upgrades but bear in mind you may have to upgrade other things like brakes and will need a tune. There are too many options and opinions so you’re better off talking directly to the people that will do the work for cost estimates.

Try giving Chasers Motorworks, Performance Plus or Advanced Turbo Performance a call if you’re closer to the western suburbs.

Good luck!

Stock Neo is 206 kW at the engine.....therefore about 150 at the wheels.  The most they can be pushed to without risking turbo destruction and/or running out of injector is ~200-210rwkW (and more like a realistic 200rwkW, not an optimistic 210!).  That's well shy of 300HP at the wheels.

Minimum spend is;

Hypergear highflow, ca. $1k

Injectors, ca $600

Fuel pump, ca $300

Z32 AFM, ca $300

Nistune + tune, ca $1200.

But you wouldn't do these things without an exhaust and frontmount.  If you have them already, great, but otherwise you need another couple of thou.  $4k is just a little bit shy of what would be good to have to spend.

    • This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
    • Don't do what I did, use a 300000km old housing with billet gears. The old pump probably was clearanced with saw dust, Edward Lee's special engine treatment sauce and a good odo wind back. I had oil pressure issues, then replaces pump with new housing, new billet gears and 2x track day later binned a motor due to other oil related issues due to a previous engine builder. Long story short, buy a M2 or 3 or 4 N55/S55/S58 and enjoy life.
    • Yeah. "New pump" does not have to mean "massive pump".
    • Well, can you still get an OEM pump, and by the time you're buying a Nismo/N1 etc, just buy another aftermarket pump. It's better to have the pump able to flow more if its needed, than for your pressure to drop off. At any point in time, you're replacing the oil pump in a rebuild. Aftermarket pumps are likely going to be a better economical choice, and they don't have any negatives, even if they can flow more.   Also, when you're saying "replace the pump gears" are you meaning leave a 25+ year old housing in the engine with unknown wear, and just put new gears in? As that sounds silly to me, especially if you do have that minute amount of wear, that means your new pump gears now have a little bit more clearance beside them, which means, whelp, you may not get to build a lot of oil pressure or make a lot of flow.
    • Right, but if you replace the pump gears + put a spline or sine drive gear on the crank on a Nismo/OEM/N1/etc pump at that point do you really still want more flow/oil pressure? Let's say this is a the aforementioned "keep it simple" build, no more than ~400 kW at the crank.
