You have 5 grand and you want 300 to 350 horse power................Take the 5 grand and use it as a down payment on a Corvette!
..............Just joking! If you already have the SR20 put in with 5 grand worth of modifications you should be able to pump out more then 350 Hp if you spend you money wisely and do the right modifications. I think you should be able to get into the 400's

It's not all about numbers.
First id get Tein HE$1300
some good 16 or 17s $1200
LSD $1200
Aluminum driveshaft $600(I think)
New Exedy clutch/Flywheel
(If you can afford it with whats left)
You will only get a little more power to the ground from the driveshaft/flywheel being lighter, but better(lighter, wider, stiffer)rims and the lsd will give you shorter 1/4 times also it will rev up faster. The HE's will make the car more stable for drifting

F*** that. Get some wheels that won't bring you to an untimely end.
I even saw the vehicle that belonged to the poor guy driving around my town a few hours before the cops came and busted the thugs. Creeped me out when I found out about it.
