None to report. The only mods that will make more power are bigger cams and a different intake manifold. That wont happen for a few reasons-
1- Car is a road race setup now so balance between response and peak power is more important. Luke races around 23-24psi on E85, 445-450whp nominal.
2- Luke wont be running Q16 at any event (534/514 was on Q) either.
3- Parts cost money even for shops. We put the car together for Luke with all the spares in the shop that we couldnt sell. S1s are smaller than most of our customers want and we have a bunch of stock intake manifolds.
This turbo is definitely capable of more, we just wont be the ones to push it to the limit. I believe Curt Brown made 570+ on it on a large spike though. He uses E85, ER SD tuning, S3s, BR2.3RPM (10:1), Skunk2 Intake, and I want to say a 39psi spike.
