Matt Ledbetter: 

Car was being prepared for Battle of the Imports. Is currently limited to 5 psi of turbo pressure, but is capable of much more. With boost cranked up, an estimated 325-350 (Flywheel) on pump gas. 400Hp on race gas.

Steve Neese:
Although the car is currently a little rough around the edges, it is an absolute bullet!!  It is currently setup as follows: Intake -> Turbo -> Throttle -> SC -> IC -> Intake.  There is currently no SC bypass installed.  While the car will probably always be in a constant state of flux, the future final goal for the car is to have the following installed:

Motec M4 system
Quaife LSD
Big Brake system
FJO wideband O2 sensor
Second set of rims and tires for a track setup.  (245s in the rear, and 225s in the front)
SC bypass if a smooth transition can be achieved.
Once this has all been achived, dyno numbers and track times will come.
