Significant Technical Input
that equation could actually use a little revision.
230 hp at 95% ve
(14.7 + 7)14.7 = 147.5% ve
147.6/95 = 155.4% increase at 5600 rpms
new peak at 6500 rpms
6500/5600 = 1.16
1.55 * 1.16 * 230 = 413.5 hp at 6500 rpms

let's not get caught up in playing with numbers though. It is what it is and we'll measure it soon enough.
