I'm extremely suspicious of those numbers, though. BPC made "just" 280whp with open velocity stacks, an 8200rpm red line, and headers. Heck, full-blown built race motors with fixed VANOS, deleted Valvetronic, ITB's, ported heads, etc., make 300whp.
They are displaying crank HP and not wheel hp if I'm not mistaken.

But I could be wrong! Even if it's crank....288 is something I would settle for as I would think I am close to 270+ now that I'm FBO. Still less than 250 at the wheel though.
