As far as I know, only a handful (or slighly more) of VQ's have eclipsed the 1000whp/hp mark, and GTM only has claim to maybe one of those (XKRs stroked G35)

IMO, est #'s should never be used to create an illusion or hype around a product. Let the proven power #'s, 1/4 times and quality of build speak, instead of marketing teams. I know Mark@PAS and am somewhat disappointed that his team would put such vaporware to print..
*It def does help with sales tho*

I am by no means trying to diminish your goals or aspirations, by chiming in on this thread asking for #'s.. I am just curious whether or not you will attain your goals and really would like to see what kind of power you will make when all the hype has cleared...
the thread was started around when the build started. They had 1000hp as a goal, hence the name of the thread. its impossible to have actual #'s before a build is complete. i don't really think its misleading.
