Maybe 550whp or so. You'll need ethanol or something to increase octane to make more power.

The results will be disappointing.
Skip the heat exchanger and get a fuel pump.

I'm really glad more and more VAG people are popping up here to speak my language. I think the same thing. BMW tuning is way cheaper, but materials and design is cheaper as well. VW was all expensive Doc Race style BT options, while BMW owners jump on log manifolds and hybrids like crazy. I asked one vendor specifically and he said "It costs me more money, and it doesn't make me more money."
hard to argue with that.
Also I'm coming to learn that, from a spool perspective, twin scroll/twin turbo design trumps all those other turbo properties. So since the N54 days it has never been a concern, because it's not like VW where you have a bunch of exhaust pulses fighting for priority.
