I am very anxious to see the difference from the extra boost and power....

You will get there mate, least now you can compare to various other proven FD's around the world (the whole idea of using a VBOX and this list).
Remember F=m*a, so extra weight has an effect especially at lower speed tests like 90-140, at higher speed aero dynamic drag force plays by far the biggest part (Bugatti anyone!) there is no substitute for power and average power in the gars you choose.
100kmh to 200kmh is a fantastic practical test, and no shortage of real supercars to compare yourself with too. You may not want to do the power band test in 3rd gear though with your massive turbo, it will show up the lack of low end power and response. I will run the report anyway and post it up so people can see the effects. Again on my site the Capella on the VBOX testing page performs very badly from 4700rpm to 8000rpm in 3rd gear (over a second slower than my car).... too big a turbo and wrong porting for those revs on the street.
I fixed up some formatting on the first page, so its easier to follow for people.
