I was OK with the "mostly stock" thinking that they made changes to the ride height and aero and just turned the boost way up, but when they said they changed the compression ration.... Well, to change the CR, you've probably had the heads off and changed the pistons. At that point, I'm not sure you can throw "mostly" out in front of "stock". I'm guessing it's got at least 1500ftlbs of torque. If it's got the right gearing, I'd guess that should be enough power to push it to 180.
Still, pretty darn impressive.
