Not quite. Greg's car dynoed with the BEST unleaded race fuel you can get (VP 109) and it dynoed less than you are gonna be running on 93 octane with a BAT running properly. And with race gas of that level and that kind of high boost (30+psi) like his car you will have a good 100whp MORE which is MASSIVE running something like a GT3076 like I have. Then dont forget while making those power numbers in his car the turbo is so far out of its efficiency range, way out of the turbo map it aint even funny. That means turbos wont last long. The car will probably run 310whp on pump gas if indeed it did have that great of improvement with this stuff. Dont be thinking you are gonna run around everyday with crazy power (I guess this could be crazy power to some of you though).
And to your comment of riding in the car. Well of course you think it is gonna feel fast as hell when you ride around in a little K03 turbo powered TIP everyday
Hell my buddies stock Chevrolet 1500 pick up would probably spank you
Moral to the story, don't be bagging on the "BAT," it is just ignorant to think that you are gonna make comparable power.
And then about your drag racing comment, I guess you know nothing about it with a comment like "smash all 1/4 mile times because of the fact it spools real low." The car while drag racing will never see any kind of low rpm so spooling low doesnt mean shit. Why do you think cars run stupidly big turbos that are drag cars? You rev the car up to 5000+rpm on the line, rip off the line and then every shift will be above the boost threshold so you will be at the rpm point where you will have full boost after every shift. And then even if you have power, that dont mean you automatically run good times. Remember Dirtybyrd being able to trap 114 on a run of his but still didnt break into the 12s (he ran 13 second passes). That is where the driving part comes in to play that some may not think is so important, but until you do it you have no idea.
