However, the magazine knocked around 1 second off and added 10mph trap speed--same driver/conditions. That is 100whp. That is 432bhp. May be off by 20, 30, 40bhp, but even so---it's not 500bhp.
You are probably correct, your numbers are all certainly in line with the performance the Stillen Z had shown. Judging from what I have seen regarding the Stillen supercharger kit, I highly doubt it is putting out anything more than what you indicated.

In fact, if the car is putting down the amount others on this forum are putting down with the supercharger kit, that is better than if they brought out their original press car which would have led to unrealistic performance.
