I guess I'm more interested in trying to find out if anyone has broken the 180hp barrier (@3000rpm) with an air cooled (non-variable-cam) engine, 3.6L or smaller. Thanks.

I think you'll only get power that early with twin turbos. Mine was around 180ish at 3000rpm with the K16/24's. It's now got 24/26's, which will obviously send me backwards early on, but should help with torque, intake temps, and top end power
Graph with the 16/24's
Haven't got it mapped yet for the bigger turbos, will post a graph when i do
