Prolly around 385-400HP on a safe setup and tune.
You'll never boost 40psi on the stock turbo no matter how hard you try(or why you would even consider trying). You can definitely spike it to 30 with no problem though. As long as you're on race gas or meth that is.

We are thinking about going to streets with speed ventures in a month or two, and will definitely be back at SMMP in october. Nils if you know of any other open days out there let me know mang! I loved that track. I still cant leave her full open before ego check, but I was getting close lol.
open trackdays at SMMP are becoming more rare, & I heard speedventures is not going back there again.

I think there is audi club & PCA still though.. best bet is to check out the calendar on the SMMP site. Streets is fun.. bring freinds & make a road trip ou tof it... cali is intimidating at first, but once your doing it its alot of fun....

Yea you can spike to 30 easy if you run 100 octane i was boosting 28lbs... so just on hundred you would be fine. and as for power... well that depends on your other mods. But on stock turbo with spike to like 30lbs and everybolt i bet u could see 420-440 on a dynojet..

I have been talking to this guy I was going back and forth with at the HPDE on NT01s (on a M coupe) he was running consistent 2.46 and said that He would be interested in trying the REO1s and seeing how much time they would give up... I am thinking maybe a full 1.5 seconds on the full track..

Nils has used them both so I hope he would chime in.
however, yes I have always said if you haven't had a year of HPDE you really shouldn't step up to Rcomps... but thats me.
Oh BTW spring mountain is opening a Kart track so I may have to get back into that

ya, prolly better to start on street tires.. but you'll never know what an R comp feels like 'till you ride or drive it

shaved r-dots should give you about 3-4 secs, properly driven at SMMP compared to 140tw tires...

Gotta give props to all the LV Evos!!! I am from southside chicago but come out to Vegas to visit my parents "other" house during March Madness. Man every trip I take down 95 south to the strip or take 215...I see at least one or two evos. No way you see that many traveling in chicago. Big ups.

Saving for my own VIII or IX, most likely will get it from LV in 5-6months.

And Go Rebels :P
