In addition, I said it would be achieved on 100 oct. Using the 100 oct. in addition to this setup will allow you to run more boost and mess with timing more thus increasing power. This would bring you to 400+whp give or take some depending on what dynos you are using.

Its going to be very exciting around here when turbo kits come out.

What's the maximum flow rate of the turbos, and the max fueling on the standard system? Can they both really deliver 50% above standard? I guess what I really mean is has anyone really seen 460bhp? Once you start maxing out these variables, it doesn't matter how much timing you can add with 100 octane fuel... And "what dynos you are using" doesn't change the power the car is making, it just changes how over the top the result is ;-) However, whilst I might not agree with the additive nature of your maths, it certainly is clear that there is a lot of potential :w00t:
