You don't need to apologize, I'm not offended. Why aren't you following up on the suggestion on who's posts to research? If you do that then you can see people making more power. I'm not the librarian here, and I agree it can be hard to find stuff in this forum, but I don't have control over that. Furthermore, I confess I suck at it. Luckily, I have a good memory.



Totally agree. Don't trust dyno numbers. That includes NC335d. But, it is pretty rare to see a tuner under report HP numbers. That's why when someone posts track numbers with their signature that could not be gotten without going over 400 HP, you might be able to draw your own conclusions.
So let me spell it out - TDIwyse. IMO, iaknown is also over 400HP, but you might think I am biased on that one.

Still, the point could be lost, so I will try to clarify. Guys who are putting the HP higher in the rpms are going faster.
I'm not worried about the trans letting go guys, I have another sitting at the shop right now
