there is no way to determine how much hp you will make with a turbo engine unless you talk about boost levels.

At 0psi (atmospheric pressure) the BPT will probably make around 90-100 whp. move up to 5 psi, and it makes about 140-150ish, move up to 8 psi, and you are looking at 160-170ish. At 15psi, i've seen people with over 220whp with stock internals, and only bolt on mods.
Here is a quote from a few days ago from Wil. These are wheel horsepower not crank, that is why they are lower.

Humongous.

What is that intercooler out of? One of their diesel medium-duty trucks?

Dude theres no way you will fit that on your protege unless you go without a bumper. It doesn't even seem like I have enough room for my 22"x9"x3" IC to fit behind my stock bumper. That's why I went with the EVO kit. I would go with the Mitsu Starion IC if I were you.
