VM ST N54 runs big power on dyno with room to spare!

Got a chance to get on the dyno and mess with the tuning a bit to figure out where to go next. We ran 30 PSI and only 6* ign adv, the car was yes I know only revved out to 7k not 7400 as we ran out of WG spring we need to change the combo to hold the full 30 PSI up top and turn to higher boost levels. We wanted conservative timing to see what we could push in terms of boost levels and found 30 to be the most. I plan to hit the dyno again before NFZ in September and get the boost levels up with higher timing and see what the car can really do. Over all considering the relatively low timing and rev limit not bad power to have made.

I'd this with 100% E85? If so that is a bit low unless I am missing something? Still great power though.

It is but it's only 6* ign adv and it was leaking boost at redline down to only 28 PSI I need stiffer WG springs with full boost, and running it out to 7400 RPM instead of 7k plus the usual 9-10* ign adv we would be much higher in the power range wanted to see what it could hold for boost and it gave up a lot sooner then I had thought. With those factors present I suspect well over 700 whp
