It seems you are comparing this to a 2.7 V6 BT correct ?
Who is to say that the 2.7 is really that efficient.
Since Hap has done just a bit of work to the engine, I think it's safe to
assume that the heads will flow well, the TB isn't too restrictive, and the
IC doesn't loose 2-4 PSI at these flow rates. I am sure he has paid
attention to flow rules thru his intake piping.
Maybe his 7 PSI at the turbo is still 7 PSI at the cylinder.
I am not sure what your assumptions are, and I am not gonna put any words in
your mouth.
I am not trying to say your wrong, I am just adding my thoughts.
There are a ton of factors that will determine just how much power will be
made.
If he can blow 7 psi in there at good temps and not retard his timing (and
his timing has been well optimized), I don't see it all that far fetched to
be achieving said power levels.
People make more on less displacement.
Really there are many factors missing from this argument. With out all the
factors, it's really all just theories.
