You are talking about useless figures for 4 wheeling .Torque at low revs is what counts.

I disagree. its not only about torque but thats not what the threads about. Its for his road car

they turbo really nicely, get up to 1500hp in the US on these. so anything is possible, just how much cash :lol:
I should imagine a lazy 300 would be very easy to get, prolly 10 psi and reliable as hell
Have a look here to see whats possible

if you put the right sized turbo on it for what yoru wanting to do you can not only increase peak t but also bring it down the rev range :D

300 hp @ 2000 rpm give you a whopping 787 Pound Foot
300 hp @ 1000 rpm 1575 Pount Foot

though to get those sorts of figgures id be going for a blower with about 50 psi :D

That is why we turboed my motor.
Out of the factory peak torque was at 4000rpm (400nm) but it has 320nm (80% at 2000rpm. Our goal was to get peak torque but 3000 rpm without sacrificing any top end.
I've got a way oversized turbo (but it is a dual ball bearing turbo) and I have boost at 2000rpm with full boost (and peak torque) at 3000rpm.
The other advantage is a wee bit more top end as well!!!!!!

The other coment I have, is low end engine torque is all that is important then every Suzuki out there would be a complete POS off road!
