A n/a 4 rotor will get you 550+ hp close to 600hp, I would say or just under that if you know how to get the power out of it and tuned right. Everyone's 4 rotor setup may vary so the right setup will get you to about 2000hp if I had to guess.

We've made more than 700hp on our dyno from an NA but you're absolutely correct; 2000hp is quite believable for an FI 4 rotor.
