I think by "up to" they mean how much power the kit will support with other mods if it's maxed out. There's no possible way for a turbo of that size to produce a 263% power improvement without running insane (and by insane I mean impossible) psi. If it could push more cfm and slightly lowered the psi then maybe...but then the engine probably wouldn't spool a turbo that big. I've got a friend that's running a Procharger D-1R blower on his '86 Capri w/ an injected 389...now Procharger lists the hp capabilities of the D-1R at 1200hp. Does that mean the Capri is making 1200hp? Nooooo...more like 800hp or so. It's all advertising hyperbole.
