Do you know what SAE correction and smoothing they were using when that was displayed?

@BaysideFab in 1st place with the K at 485WHP.
I've been following your build - sorry for your loss, well losses. On the bright side, you can send a lot of rods to the moon before you start getting anywhere close to M96 money.
I think you will get it sorted and the K turbo is a pretty well vetted combo, the stock rods and boost coming on a little too hard have ended a lot of them though. If you're going to stay with a stock block, really good boost control (waste gate priority) and someone that knows how to tune them to stay alive will probably do you real good. Good luck.

Also as you can see by this graph this is where we had the issue. It survived boost cut in the dyno but not on the street. Made 556hp and 474tq and was climbing. Stock motors can not handle that power level. Would have been fine at the 480hp level.

Here is my 996 with 997 3.8 and Dundon Exhaust compared to 996 GT3. My car is blue line (hope that is right....I am color blind.). This is at the wheels so I think you add 15%

@lowpue Kinda hard to tell where peak was, How about we go with 345. Interesting how similar the power curves are with the GT3, the GT3 power is just shifted later in the RPM range.

I'm with @philbert996 that the Honda should be removed from the list -- for now. You are not allowing one-off runs from engine builders and this seems like one of those to me. I'd be more inclined to allow it if I saw a motor that was being regularly driven without grenading.
Thanks for starting this thread BTW. Should be a lot of fun.

If @BaysideFab numbers were out of line for a Turbo K, I’d agree with you, but they’re not - the story is in this thread so people can use their own judgement.

The below is taken from the OP's first post of this thread. I'm just sayin':
"So, let's see those higher than stock HP 996's."
