In the real world thats about 330 - 350hp to the wheels. Which is not bad at all. But for the price of TFS heads and the cames they what you to buy,.. thats a $4000 package. Stock heads and S-strim and you have 400 to the wheels for the same money.
Plus I'm a little suspicious of how linear the dyno graph is. Considering the source if from a TFS tech,.. I'm willing to bet that they are spinning that graph to make the heads look much better then they are.

Hence why I said it was done on an engine dyno without accessories.
Supposedly it takes nearly 40 hp to turn the accessories, which is pretty amazing if it's true. There is no doubt that it won't be the best bang for buck for someone with a stock 2V that just wants to make something quick, but it will be cool to see N/A 2v's actually run respectable times. Plus they should make wicked power with a PA and a built long block.
Personally, when I get the money to get something going with my GT I'll just go straight to looking for used intercooled centri blower. It's definitely doable to have it installed and tuned for under 3k, which I regret not doing from the get-go, instead of getting nicked and dimed by buying half a dozen bolt-on's.
