489HP - 15% drivetrain loss = approximately 415Hp to the wheels.

What boost level are you at making this power?

Actually, we have no way to tell what kind of whp he's putting down yet. The shop obviously used a conversion factor to determine crank power, but if they JUST informed him of that little fact, I doubt they gave him the conversion factor they were using. For all we know they could have assumed 25% drivetrain losses

Alex, man, you're not having much luck with the vehicles...what kind of tuners have you been taking your precious vehicles to lately?

Alex, you should get Sean from TorqueFreaks out to tune your car. He is one of the most experienced and skilled EMS tuners on the planet. Worth every penny if you ask me.
