Couple things come to mind... Don't want to be Mr. Negative here but...
AFAIK, no one has the ability to tune a V6 yet... I can't even find any really solid estimates when any kind of tuner will be available... best I've heard is possibly in another 6 months or so...
Ok... 550whp... assuming 550rwhp... that's pretty much over double compared to stock... WOW... yeah, that's pushing it alright... not sure in a good way though.... Doing the math 550 HP at the crank is a bit more reasonable... personally i would be a bit more conservative since I'm unaware of anyone really pushing the limits to find out where the weak points are in the power train... especially since a turbo is going to make a lot of nice low end torque!
good luck! Keep us posted!
