Who leaves their car stock anymore anyways? There comes a point where you stick with the decision you made and play catch up if you MUST have the biggest baddest car on the road....Otherwise, enjoy what you have and suck it up if get smoked by a faster car. Who cares?

Actually.... higher than that... it takes 80 Horsepower to run the supercharger.... and they are measuring 707 at the flywheel. So the engine is actually putting out closer to 800 hp.
Umm, well you can't really count how much hp it takes to turn the supercharger as hidden hp and add it to the total motor output. For people who want to know a more accurate hp assessment will find a load based dyno and use the SAE numbers at the tires to calculate motor hp by dividing drivetrain loss, for example 12%. That will be a better indicator of hp at the motor. Dynojets can show pretty numbers, but at the end of the day they're just pretty numbers.
