Todd's the current champion and defender of the m30 turbo crown around here I think. Sweeney's is also very high, as are a few others. Todd hasn't dynoed it recently since he still hasn't installed the rebuild of the motor that was blown at LAST year's 5erFest, but I seem to remember him throwing down something around 420 rwhp.

He's likely to be in the 450-500 rwhp range very soon.

Zane is reigning champ in the e12 camp.

You're right. I was thinking m30, not e28. I that case I think Ken H. is the current big power champion in the e28 arena. He achieved 707 rwhp out of his custom turbo M5 on the dyno, but he feels we treated him poorly and won't share any of his secrets with us.

See the "Huge power from an s38" thread started by Duke a little farther down the page for some dyno graphs.
