I'd say that sounds about right. My sisters BF has an 04 STI and with a GT35 and at around the same boost he's making 415 WHP so that kid was not over 400. He didn't seem like a bad kid though. I think 100-200 more whp is a bit of a stretch though lol.

Fair enough, but i certainly don't think it's in the mid 400s. Coming from someone with the same turbo in an AWD, it doesn't seem like it's at that power level to me.
At about 360-370whp i start having traction issues launching. At 400+ i can't hook in 1st gear even from a roll. He has more rubber i'm sure, but he managed to bog and stay dead hooked the whole time. No offense to him, but I think 400whp is a bit of a stretch. I'm thinking 360-380, personally.

Gotta get him out here some time, sounds like a fun car!
