You can't compare different cars though, unless they are close to stock. With old ass DSMs and throwing a built motor into the mix, things get too skewed. Half the guys out there with built motors in DSMs would have made more power with a stock motor because they raised the compression too much, or got some stage 5 ported head that makes less power than a stock one, or created some flow problem/hot spot that causes detonation to early, or the motor is so noisy that it constantly sets off the knock sensor, or some other weird problem. And then there are the fluke setups that just make stupid power compared to others for no obvious reason.
I can tell you that if he was out east that it would make a decent amount more power with some good pump gas. Or on E85, it would make a shiet load o'power.
