Performance forecast

My car has 276 crank Hp (stock) and Car and Driver magazine post these numbers:

0-60 = 5 seconds

1/4 mile = 13,6/102

Top speed = 157mph

Now Let's assume that my car after some mods is doing 360-370 crank hp,
How would change the performance numbers? ? ?

I guess:

0-60 = 4,5 seconds

1/4 mile = 13/107mph

top speed = 165 mph

Are these numbers correct?

360AWHP you are looking at a low 12 at 110+ or possibly a very high 11 if your launch is perfect, shifting is perfect and your clutch holds well.

Those forecast numbers are more for a stock Evo, except the top speed. But the 4.5, and 13.0 are pretty much stock.

ideally?
Low 4s
mid high to high 12s.

Top speed? your guess is as good as mine.

Top speed is not going to increase very much.

Modded Evo with cams should clear 170mph easily... just gotta remove the factory limiter.

i think no matter how much you modify the car, the top speed will not change by much. because when you reach certain speed the gear ratio still not change, modifying the engine will help you reach that speed faster but it wont increase the top speed. top speed all have to do with the gear ratio

top speed is 7500rpm, just cancel the rev limiter and go to 8500rpm!!! I don't how much spped you increase with 1000rpm in 5th gear but for sure 10mph.
