I found this quote while looking at a site for electronic engine control systems. Maybe I should rethink my HP goal.

"Dyno time came around, they had an above ground dyno at the show, and a huge crowd gathered around to see the 034 1.8t w/ the huge turbo, they put down about 415whp @ 30+ psi , the crowd went crazy......... I went next, a bit worried cuz we had actually turned down the numbers to clean up the a/f ratio a bit, gonna start dragging it now, so no need for big dyno numbers. We hit 487whp @ 22psi on a 7k rpm pass, usally 8k rpm, crowd went nuts, word got around quick and we had a huge crowd around my gti in about 5 minutes, efi guys were left standing all alone, turned to them and gave them a friendly wink, they said nothing the rest of the day...............god I love sds."

I was looking for a complete engine control system for a wankle and the quote was on their FEEDBACK page. You might search for "dubfest 04"
