First off, aussie dynos read lower.

2ndly, have u upgraded injectors? Id say thats about the max power level for the 440cc's out of the APS kit...

Thanks for the feedback.

I do have the stock APS Fuel System and it is maxed out.

I guess I was a little bit sursprised that it took 14 PSI to produce this number. I was expecting the stock APS fuel system to max out at a lower boost pressure.

The turbos are theoretically good for 750-800 HP at the engine at 16 PSI but looking at my results, there's no way that this is achievable.

Your exhaust is limiting you more than you think. Also, dropping compression requires you to run a bit more boost

Realistically, 750 bhp is acheivable on a 9:1 cr motor, but may take upwords of 18 psi. When my motor is put back together, I will know more specifically what it takes to push some good power with this kit.

figuring 18% drivetrain loss, 750 bhp = 615 whp
