Do you mean 500hp or 500
rwhp? Either way, yes...most of us run a blend of race gas, and/or meth/water injection, and/or toluene, etc. In general, it's either that, or keep the boost down... Besides, with a huge single turbo, 16psi makes more power than the oem twins do at that boost level. On the downside though, you have to deal with the lag of the huge turbo too...

What can I say, other than the well-known saying: 'you have to pay if you want to to play'.
Besides, even if it cost you $20/gallon, a few gallons of race fuel is much cheaper than replacing a blown engine, right?

If you mean 400
rwhp, then no...probably closer to 350rwhp...maybe 375rwhp (through a 6spd) on a cold day, if your engine is in excellent shape (i.e. good/high compression #s).
