Message	I did 578whp 600ftlbs 22.5psi on the stock cams, everything else the same. Curve was slightly to the right but is it worth the 1500$?...probably not imo. I run pure e85. The nismo 740s are at about 90% duty at that point. They'll max out at 600whp on e85 most likely. You could play with fuel pressure but I'm running stock base fuel pressure. The turbo also cant hold that boost till redline, you can see it on the graph MixMan posted.
