Default Keeping an '86-'88 on stock Turbo

If I were to keep the stock KKK on an '86-'88, and only add the simpler initial changes (chips, wastegate shims, MBC, test pipe) what type of power could I be expecting?

I'm still toying with the idea of keeping it near stock while looking for a junked 914 to play with, or another toy

~240-250 rwhp depending on status of the car mechanically. Just a guess from what I've seen people post. Also depends on boost level you are running, but if you go too high you run out of the injector range (for safety).

I don't know the exact figure but it should be good for at least 50hp. That should be plenty unless you're going to race it. But you also have to concentrate on the basics like faulty sensors, dried up hoses, ect. One little malfunction can rob a lot of horspower.
