A ZFR will easily get you that pretty safely. You'll probably need a new clutch though and you'll probably have to think about a tranny if you go up to 400.

damn, thats really good numbers on pump gas and 22psi, the clutch must really be helping put down the power...400 should be pretty easy with the zfr...

In my understanding this is not due to the meth it is due to either a poor tune or the idiot owner not realizing that he ran out of meth and the engine is tuned for it.

ZFR can make that power conservatively on pump gas. No more need for meth.

isn't he going to need the ZZP cams and/or 5th injector? maybe he won't for just 400whp.

Bad oil? as in you didn't change your oil at proper intervals?

Sounds like meth was the problem, oil is never the problem of an engine unless you are starving it of oil.

should be more than enough fuel with 93, e85 is where the fuel concerns come into play as you need much more fuel to burn,

If your meth system is working properly, you aren't gonna have a problem with your motor. It's when the meth fails that things break

400 he should just need the fully bolt-ons and a good clutch with a good tune.. next upgrades would be zzp cams and valves.. imo
