It will make the 350-370 WHP mark with JWT S4 cams at 15PSI with no problems . If you change your mind for more WHP then you will have it. It is always best to not run the turbo right at its power level peak as you tend to run high intake and exhaust temps.
350-360 WHP is pushing the GT28RS to its limit and they usally see that WHP at 16-17 PSI. It can make alot more with external wastegate but keeping things simple with internal wastegate is the way to go for what you want.
GT2871R for the win

Im guessing those numbers on the 2860rs are with S4 cams.
I have S3 cams running 17psi on a .63ar T3 (it flows 1cfm less than the .86ar T2) swapped Disco potato. Im making 335whp
From the readings ive seen around, the RWD SR20s seem to make a lil more power with the same turbos @ the same boost...or maybe im crazy..?
