370ish whp, do you think it can be done?

LTH's are probably good for another 4-7whp, but regardless those are still really nice numbers. I believe those are the highest documented N/A numbers.

Correct! The only thing I don't have is the LTH but I believe those actually LOSE power according to some previous testing.

I want to see it. True the dynapack reads higher because you're not rotating the unsprung weight of the rear wheels however I don't think you'll hit 350 easy. I put down 315 on a dyno dynamics which is yet another "heartbreak" dyno according to some.

The good think about the dynapack is that it gives you an accurate rwhp... as in, the power that is hitting the rear wheels. Not power to the street.

Correct again.

I'm not going to get into an argument here but I've seen dynapacks read as much whp as the car was supposed to have bhp, they are all over the place and usually read too high to give any indication of real power. I'm not sure why you think that's a good thing, I guess if you wanted to know an inflated number of what the car is putting down without wheels and tires on, only drivetrain loss, then that would be good.They are just notorious ego boosters in every car community I've ever been on.

315 on a dyno dynamics is great though, that you can definitely be proud of and is a much better approximation of the power your car is making.

Moving on.

Agreed
