how much power/quarter mile times

hi, i just bought a s5 t2 with a t3/t4 hybrid turbo that's running 16 lbs of boost. i've raced a few people and the power wasnt what i expected. how much horsepower would you estimate it has. and what kind of 1/4 mile times? i've looked at other peoples fc's but i don't know what kind of difference their other mods make so i can't figure out what mine would run compared to theirs. here's a list of all the mods.

BNR Stage2 Upgrade Turbo
Rx7Trix Stage2 upraded motor with mild porting
Brand new Racing Beat Housings
FD Fuel Pump
Act 6 Puck Clutch
NGK 9 plugs all the way around
Magnecore Wires
k&n cone Intake filter
FCD
Apexi Blow off Valve

i would get an safc before you run it that hard at 16psi
tune it and fix your exhaust leak then run it and it should be IMO
260whp and maybe 13.5 @ 102

i guess i'll just have to come up w/ some money and get to a track. i checked out the exhaust system today and it's a major piece of ****. half of the flanges are leaking and the pipe where it becomes a "y" is leaking. there isn't enough support for it under there.

Fix your signature. 6 lines is all that is allowed. Yours has ten more than that. fix it before an admin sees it and deletes it all together.
