I tried a search & got nothing.
In a turbo set up, What engine/turbo combo would make big numbers on 93 octane? I see most turbo cars make + or - 650rwhp on pump gas.
Ive seen a vid of a turbo viper make about 1K rwhp on 93 (488cid) I cant find the vid right now. Ive seen a chevelle 347 TT make 750rwhp.
A big motor with a big turbo will make the most on pump gas right?
Why do some set ups make more than others even though there almost the same?

bigger fuel systems supplying more fuel.

Actually a centrifigal blower can make the most power on pump gas out of all the power adders. Take a BBC, throw a F2 on it with E85 pump gas and that's 1200rwhp easy.

e85 has a higher octane rating. He was refering to 93 octane.

I havent seen an E85 station yet... how much is it for a gallon?

SVTlightning87

is it true you dont go as far on a tank of E85 then 93? in theory would E85 fuel keep a stock short block alive longer due to less detonation?

You are correct, if use use E85 you do consume more than standard gas. You do have to change your fuel system over to accept alcohol.

Well, This is what im talking about. The T/A in this vid made 884 rwhp on 91 octane @ 15 psi.

If you go on speed inc's site & look at the single turbo kit it says "We made 675hp on 93 octane" So why did this T/A make more power? What & where are the limits?

I'm not going to look at speed inc's site, but it could be possibly be a bigger cubic inch motor, or a larger fuel system just throwing more 91 or 93 octane into the motor.
