Default Max hp on 550s?

Well im in the process of building my new motor (81.5mm b16) I was just curious as to how much hp i can make on my 550 Rc's. I know they say like 360whp but im trying to make 400whp. Do you think or know if it is possible to make that on 550s with a b8m regulator and walbro 255hp pump?

I think I heard of someone making like 390whp on 550's, but I would not attempt it. Sell them and get a bigger set. You might even be able to find someone to trade you.

i have the same exact setup but on an h22 and im shooting for 400whp on 550s... i knwo it can be done, but i think the fp would be too high... im prob only gonna bump up the pressure a little for like 375ish..

nothign wrong high fuel pressure... upping the fuel pressure on small injectors is old school technology.

and it still works as of today.
