um. Personally, I am not sure. My car is stock at 12PSI and I raise it to 15PSI when racing with stock fuel everything.
I wouldn't say it's a package. The guy bought a $5 BC, $5 Y-pipe because of high boost, used AFC, and used turbos I dunno, I spent much more on the same things but it works. He has many timeslips and videos as he put these mods on and dropped from mid 12s and into the 11s.

What I was trying to say is that someone NEEDS to put these packages together (w/o the AFC/Turbo) and start marketing the heck of them!!

Hmm. I don't mean to speak for HellBringer but unless these brothers have serious mods, they will not stand a chance against his VR4. It is completely badass for a car with a few mods.
CJB80 is making 420 - 430rwhp in his s2000 which weighs in about 2,700 lbs. Soon he will be making over 500rwhp. This combined with a nice final drive will put him in the 10s. I wouldn't be so quick to say the s2000 wouldn't stand a chance because it would take alot more than 500rwhp in a Vr4 to come close to the power:weight ratio of the much lighter S2000. Assuming the Vr4 weighs in at 3,500 lbs(could be wrong here) the VR4 would need 560rwhp to match the power:weight ratio of an S2000 with 425rwhp which is what CJB80 is at now. His car also has about the most aggressive gearing possible so the VR4 would also need a nice set of aftermarket gears as well to go along with this HP figure. When CJB80 takes it to 500rwhp the VR4 would now need 640whp plus the appropriate gearing. This is all based on a pull-on race obviously, the AWD will help the VR4 greatly off the line, but power for power those are the real numbers.

Oh, well I don't want a $5 dollar Ypipe on my car There's just soo many modifications that can do wonders to cars that most people don't know about including myself. I hear bits and pieces and never know what to do but make small changes that I know are OK. Like fuel-pump hot wire and stuff like that are taken for granted as effective cheap mods.

not with 315 sized drag radials in the rear.....probably not as bad as you think. Plus i defnitely didn't "forget about traction".....i *speciifcally* said the Vr4 had the advantage due to AWD, it was the very last point i made in my post.
