It would be a truly remarkable feat if the car pulled timing, given no knock sensor on the car and no knock control ever being used on the L.
However it could be the fact the cams come to life right around 5400rpms or so

The above chart is running 11.7afr in gasoline terms, the car picks up about 30whp at 12.2afr but is only sustainable at that ratio for about 5 laps before temps start getting a little out of control. Typically this map is used for full test days as it's within the criteria we have to use for chassis setup (within 20% of peak car output) with reliability in mind.
Our actual race mapping has two maps, one at 11.7afr and another at around 12.2afr we only deviate to the latter if we think it will give us what we need to be in with a shout of a better finishing position. Both maps are substantially more power than this graph though (28psi+)

Damn someone busted me on the ninja t00n!

It does give a bunch, then a whole bunch more.

To be honest it depends on a couple of things, some of it is dependent on the parts on the car the biggest part however is the intended use of the vehicle.

Last time around it made 658whp at 28.5psi this time around I am not sure, I probably wont tune a high boost map until after testing.
This turbo really loves boost, the difference in going from 19.5psi to 22.6psi this morning was insane so I think the full race map will be somewhere between 670-700whp.

The thought of 30psi or more + 12.2afr makes mah *** pucker. I love my motor too much to do that even if I made it into a pure race car, although if I won the lottery...
Can't wait to see a dyno of her with 27psi or more.
