Consider I know if he is using the tuner from Magnuson there is another 40HP on the table, if a full catback another 20Hp maybe more, electric fans 20Hp, cooler T-stat maybe 5HP, cold air intake 15HP, and say just misc. stuff I'm forgetting say 25HP OH and Royal Purple engine oil 10HP then extra 30HP for changing to Purple synthetic in everything else His potential is rounding the numbers 540HP at the wheels.

wow thats some bench racing numbers there ... No disrespect but aint no way are you going to get 30whp out of change into a synthetic oil ...
seriously I've built some import cars in my time and there is no way you could be getting numbers like that. Another automatics have a driveline loss of at least 15 to 20% on a 2wd vehicle...
