Based on what customers reported, Stage 2 at 15psi is anywhere from 310-330rwhp. Many factors affect this: WG, condition of head, fine tuning.. you get the picture..
Peak numbers are not what's important. The large area under the power curve is what you are after..
If the shop doing the fine tuning has any question, have them call me.. Best before strapping the car to the dyno!
Keep in mind, with the latest software (chip-board), you have 2 settings (pump & race fuel) make sure you are using the correct maps.
Email dyno chart or better yet the actual disk file, I will be able to review it and will send you my comments.

It's widely known that the stock 951 exhaust headers were designed for torque. The question for Project 951 was whether we would get more top-end horsepower and more midrange torque with a given exhaust header. In Part 4 (ec, 04/04), my 951 got the torque but lost a few ponies with the B&B headers (granted, the power came back with the addition of the B&B cat-back exhaust).

Point is, there will be a difference as i mentioned.
Note: One car being tested isn't qualified as reliable data, especially since that specific car needed some major internal work (as mentioned by Tim).
You need several results

I was citing an example, not trying to counter your statement. It was the only example of a documented B&B header dyno run.

i'm assuming if the boost were turned up, it'd be a different story, werent they running like, 7 psi on that test?

"full 3" exhaust system, Stage II MAF with Mafterburner piggyback system, 3 bar fuel regulator, and an HKS electronic boost controller"
This was taken from our blog we got 290 at the rear wheels and with a little fine tuning got it up to 300.8 So everyone elses claims sound about right.

Very true. They didn't turn the boost up until they tested the SFR headers.

So it looks like I should be in the 300+ range then. I am running 55# injectors as recommended. I can't wait to get my car back, too bad I have to go out of town for a few days 
Anyways I'll post back with all the results once I get them.
