Yup that's right--according to this idiot thats what his GReddy turbocharged rx8 was at the rear wheels. Somebody needs to jump on this one of a kind GReddy turbo kit!

Guys..... He is a clever one.
Notice how he wrote hp ad not whp. He probably got a 300whp dyno on a greddy (almost blowing up the turbo
) and then he back-calculated it taking into account some theoretical drive train losses of something ridiculous like 25%(probably based on the fact that the stock RX-8 is supposed to have 233-238hp and it only makes about 180whp if your lucky). I bet you if anyone calls him out this is what he will say.
That's my take on it.....this of course assuming he didn't just lie and pull the number out of his a**.

he does say to the wheels:
"I only had it in my car for about 4 weeks and pushed 394hp with 14.2psi with right tunning to the rear wheels, with it computer."
So I'm gonna say he pulled it out of his ***

he says the almost band new midpipe I just dropped $160 for will give me an extra 100hp... j/k ... although I really did just get his midpipe. wish me luck.
