I am just saying that just because the TQ is limited to 260, the HP is not.
HP is TQ measure applied over time...if some breather mods open it up, it will cause the TQ to be applied differently(in this case higher in the rev range) and more than likely making more peak HP.
Intake and cat back will yield results on these cars...charge piping and larger FMIC, etc etc won't

The new turbo cars come from the factory choked to hell.
Do I believe these guy's numbers?
**** no...but the new Evo is making close to 300 whp with a MBC, charge piping and a DP.
Same with the SRT-4
The MS3 is doing the same thing...so why can't the LNF?
Wait for numbers with like 3" reso back, an intake, charge piping, and a tune.
I think we are all in for a surprise.

This is where most of the people like yourself is wrong.

those dyno #'s will be next week on youtube.
Im not going to sit here and do a debate. plain and simple.
If anyone is in CO/Nebraska with a turbalt. Hit me up we will go to Bandamiere race track and do a heads up.
Im gonna take it to bandamiere but my #'s will be lower as at 8,000 FT its around 1 sec diff then sea level.
So instead im gonna go to Track in CO then im gonna take the car to NY in July when i go back to visit some family and ill do a sea level run. with vids and pics on youtube.
And im gonna swing my by old buds shop and hit up his 2wd mustang dyno.
Then from there on, im gonna get into doing some mods to the car. DP,50 wet shot and then ill post up them #'s ' Ill even make a vid of car dynoing and move on over to the dyno pc while its in action ' for you hating people
The AFR was off in graph due to the wideband being push in exhaust against exhaust bend which caused a bad reading.
also. here is a quick vid.

hit me up when you're coming out to NY, we can run and see what power your car really makes. Also bring it to my friends shop, that dyno so far has been the most accurate one I've used out of the 7 in NYC and LI I've been on.

Wow, you SC guys need to grow up.
The car does better numbers than gm claimed? How is this new news to any of you?
Where is the reason behind bitching, and calling someone who did a dyno run a liar, when your cars did the very same thing from the factory?
Jesus. . . .

well when its known that the computer limits the car, it seems a little out of whack. especially 47ft lbs with an air fiilter and muffler delete.

I'm not calling anyone a liar, i just think it'd be nice to read through an GM official article about it.
