There's no way you can get 332 HP at the crank w/o forced induction. Something doesn't add up here.

IMO, they probably were not making full power out in the thin air of the salt flats. Plus the 154 is a two way average into and with the wind. Lastly they added 300+lbs. If you look at all of those factors 154 seems reasonable.
