my predicted assumption of higher HP result was based on youtube video, by /DRIVE, of Crawford stating that for the same turbo the EJ made 360hp vs. FA20 made 430hp. that's a 19.44% difference. if we apply the 19.44% on 210whp, that's 251whp.
am I correct on my assumption? I sure hope Crawford is not blowing smoke.

no that was rwhp in my build. You are bench racing. Math and reality are not necessarily the same thing, and a manufactuer is more likely to inflate numbers for marketing, advertising and sales. Also Turbo potential hp figures vs N/A number potential is not equal. I'd divide your 19.44% by 2 or more realistically.
