400 to the wheels is hard to come by. I joined this party way to late but I was going to say I would be surprised to see you get more than 400 to the wheels.
Your fuel is going to be your biggest problem that in tank pump and stock fuel lines is not going to cut it when you shoot for over 400 to the wheels. This is what I though was going to limit you. But it sounds like you may have some ignition problems.
What did you put down at 11 PSI?

Jim: @ 11psi, 60%humidity, dyno dynamics it was at 319whp. He even said with the weather we were dynoing in it was probably costing me almost 20hp alone, plus the fact the dyno dynamics are generally well lower then your regular dynojet or other dynos.
I've got a brand new set of coils, coil harness and ignitor on it's way. also ordered an HKS twinpower. That should kill off the ignition woes.
Then I've got another meth injection kit coming (dual nozzle, high pressure) which I'll be running 100% methanol from which should allow me to reduce my fuel needs decently, hopefully enough to not require more fuel system work.
Once all of thats installed I'm going to try to predict a decent day to tune and head back up again.
My total goal for the FD is 450whp, I feel confident that it's there just gotta work out the kinks.
Mind you this entire car was basically made in 2 months (if it wasnt for my first motor eating a bearing) so thats why I'm satisfied with current results.
I could easily go all out and run an A1000 external pump, run -8 to the rails etc, but thats not what this car is about (thats what the t2 is all about) I wanna see what I can squeeze from a relatively easy buildup.
Just realized i dont think i ever even posted a pic of my engine bay on here lol, ill get to that one day as well. I feel bad only pushing the t04z to 11psi...******* thing spools up in a blink of an eye tho full boost and open wastegate happens a tad too early for street driving at the moment lol.

I run 10 PSI on the street, Autocross and on mountain roads and its more than enough, the only time I turn it up is to impress someone or for track days.
Someday I will dyno this setup and find out what its making, right now it makes me smile so I do not care what kind of power its putting down.

yea after driving for a few days at 11 psi and prolly about 350 at the wheels, im pretty happy and it is manageable on the roads. gonna hit up some "out of the area" roads this weekend and let 'er rip. Roasts the tires a tad easy too, found a bad spot in first gear at about 550rpm at 11psi tho, most likely a miss/backfire puffs out smoke and pops but then goes back to being normal.
definitely reconsidering the whole open WG choice tho lol.
i think im gonna get a complete tune at 11-12psi for regular driving then have a tune up to 20psi for track days and those days that im just trying to get away from the world.

The open WG on my TO4R on 14 psi was goddamn rediculous. Was like... rrrrrrrrrrrRRRRRRRRRR BRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!
Would scare women into unwilling abortion if you weren't careful!
