With what other mods? You wont see 300atw on a 2860 without extensive headwork as a minimum, or a different inlet, or cams, or a combination etc, and even then you'll be on the limit of the turbo flow rate anyway).

Everyone seems to be fixed on this "magic" 300 figure. Remember it's all about the MAP (drivability), not about the peak figure it makes.
