also ffom an engineering point of view.... if u get more fuel and air u get in the engine then this allows the engine to rev at higher revs also the increase in book allows this to happen

im also looking for a full system but unsure which one will give me most power... im also getting a manifold made for the exhaust... but im unsure where i can get a manifold that will move when it heats up... ? any ideas??
that should give me some huge torque added on to what i already have

So you have standard exhaust and manifold........... No way can you put that much pressure in your engine via your uprated turbo and induction, and have all the gas leaving through a standard system. You may be an engineer but you must know an engine must have balance and an equilibrium, what goes in must go out, with a standard system your putting in more than is going out.
Dont know about you....................

lol if i wheel spun mine it hit 60 in about 6 seconds too
see how the speed rocketed up? thats called wheel spin!!
that dosnt proove anything, i could make a video of mine doin 0-100 in about 2 seconds by wheelspinning it
or better still i could jack up the front end and rev it up id hit about 180 in less than 4 seconds
btw the reason that ones revving up to 7000 is he has the wrong dials on, hey are petrol dials not diesel ones
even an audi A8 with a 4.2litre TDI diesel engine (which is the worlds most powerfull diesel engine) redlines at 6k
and btw that manages it in 0-60 in 5 seconds
and it MAY be possible to squeeze more hp out of the engine but not with a turned up fuel screw and a cardboard air intake lol

if the guy was wheel spinning then u would hear the wheels spinning.. unless he was on a beach....
his car can also do a quarter mile in 14.5 seconds...
