Blownchevy's G8 made 323 hp at the wheel, stock. With 6psi he made an extra 125 hp. That is a gain of 38.7% (125/323 x 100%). So 426*1.387 = 591 hp.

should it be 370rwhp x 1.387 = 513rwhp 6psi

we are looking at 550rwhp with 8psi

I see a 42,000$ camaro SS with over 100 more rwhp...
For a badass muscle car this is perfect and best bang for your buck. I want a powerful daily driver not a drag car.
