yeah when the seals blow out and its braking the dyno roller = literally negative hp LOL

nothing wrong with RA seals. they are more detonation-proof at teh expense of long-term reliability (housing wear)

I think Robert's running about 14 psi for street duty and ended up with 368 rwhp. So I think 350-400 is a good estimate. It'll feel damn fast whatever the numbers claim.

I would suggest you tune it to get whatever you can out of a setup you pick in advance because it's easy to get all excited and crank the boost just because you're all jacked about a certain target. That's when things go boom.

Then it should take at least 16.5 psi to hit 400. With proper tuning so it doesn't go boom, of course. But the even safer option is to say 368 tuned is enough.
