last I heard he stuck with 759whp @ 18 psi which if you divide by .85 equals around 892 crank hp

I mean, wouldn't even 1000 crank hp and a full 20% drivetrain loss be 800whp?

he did dyno well over 800whp. it was tuned down to 759whp for daily driving and reliability.

edit: my bad it was the GTM shop car that did 855whp

the numbers were probably quoted from Sam's car.. which is at 8XX whp.. alot of people have confused alex and sam's car since they are both black with APS TT Extreme kits.. i wouldn't really be that trivial about it..

i don't think Alex is stuck at 18 PSI.. it was a decision of Sam and Alex not to push the car further.. but basically the car is identical to sam and has the ability to produce the same power.

no Sam's car is white and looks absolutely bone stock - even the wheels and tires

I never said Alex was stuck at 18 psi as in he couldn't go beyond that.
I meant it as in that's what he decided to stay with - he chose to stick with lower boost

Most people don't unless they're into tuning and engine modification. I usually give my numbers with correction for drivetrain loss when I'm talking to someone who only knows power by the numbers they give on commercials for new cars.

yeah I saw all three cars last week in person

That's Alex's car on that site that's black with carbon fiber everywhere and the big stereo

George's car is a silver G35

Sam's car is a white Z

Yes my car is the Diamond Graphite G35 coupe with black wheels, besides I only have the 3.8L stroker, not 4.2 Other than that everything thing on the build is going to be pretty similar. Can't wait until its complete

That car IS Nitrouz' car and it CAN make 1000crank HP if he wanted to push it, but there is no reason to comprise long term reliability for some numbers on the internet

The white Z that LOOKS bone stock is Sam's car which made 855rwhp.

Hope this helps, and I love that system!
