And I can confirm you can break 150MPH but not sure by how much. |

Yes, 150 (track) is easy. Can also confirm. But huge difference between 150 and 200 obviously.

lol, yeah, I don't know about yours with the mods, but I can guarantee a stock 2018 CP vert ain't coming close to 200 mph ... and if it did and you live through it they probably have an award or something for it.

I wouldn't take it faster than 150, 155. Plenty fast for that car. Plus (as we've discussed) the steering gets very twitchy at high speeds IMO.

The math above figures whp and not crank hp, drivetrain loss in not factored in (usually 3~5%). Note that this is "true" drivetrain loss, which is much less than the "loss" seen on chassis dyno results that also include tire rolling losses and inertial effects.

But I still assume that due to your gearing, your peak WHP may not align with what you will have at that rpm and speed. |

You could always take this to the nerd extreme, and show how altitude will help, and what barometric conditions you should be looking for when you try.
Then you would have to take into account the losses in HP due to Altitude, but the gains due to less resistance from thinner air. Without pulling out my calculator, I'm sure the losses due to altitude even with a Turbo'ed car will be greater than the gains made from thinner air. |

Note that whp is not altered by gearing. The only difference between crank hp and whp in this case here is “pure” drivetrain loss.

True but your peak WHP is not consistent throughout the rpm range. So at 200 mph you may find yourself a x rpm which is a place where you may or may not be producing that peak WHP.

Correct. The math gives you the power needed at that specific speed and is not correlated to peak power.

Soon as i put my summer tires back on, I'll let you guys know....I'm close to the 500hp range with catless DP and AlpineMSS stage 2+. 2015 M4, 6MT, stock 19 wheels and rubber. I hit 170(indicated) in the fall, felt like it had a bit more to give and that was before the new tune and parts.

A few guys here have hit 330km/h repeatedly, most running about 400+ wkw hybrid turbo installs tho, on stock turbos most hit around 315-317km/h

To go 200 requires redline. To make 500whp at redline means like 600whp peak, probably.

its funny so many other things besides HP play into this. Past 150mph my ~500whp 458 feels every bit as fast, if not faster, than my old 600+whp GTR.
i think the GTR had a lower Cd, but the frontal area differences are huge between the two. The 458 NA motor loves to live up top, whereas the fbo gtr turbos are running out of breath. Lastly, the 7 speed vs 6 speed transmission.
