I will say this, the SC shows consistant numbers regardless of engine. The 2.5L installs show 100+ hp and 50ft/lb increase. He has pretty much that on the 3L. The engine is 20% larger, but the SC is still the same, pushing the same CFM.

Those who were expecting higher were just being optimistic. The Turbo will obviously be higher output, the kit has an intercooler and a real set of headers. Take in consideration that it does not rob the engine for power like an SC does and there is even more HP/TQ right there. Also the turbo reaches full boost at ~3000rpm, the SC is just starting to make it.

As for the SHOshop 3L, they have one car doing those numbers (Vadim's) I have not seen another SHOShop car put out those kind of numbers regardless of gas octane.
