That's interesting. Now to decide which two to chose. Also my main car has 625 hp from a NA engine with a time in the 2:22's.

*looks at test car*
...I should probably be running more than 252 hp, shouldn't I?

No no... you're fine 
On a side note, I'm REALLY struggling with the rotating assembly at the RPM I'm running. I'm a serious contender for the Vikus award here

My Test Van (Made in Open Beta, so 
) is running around 300hp, and I don't know track times.

I have build a turbocar and yes, great success it's faster than my NA... but... *sigh* ...it needs 3 tanks of fuel to finish 20 laps... not ideal one might say

I'm now very torn apart. I got this wing that makes my car look like a BMW M1 Procar, but it's actually hurting laptimes

I know right! Just put aero to 0, no harm there...

Actually there is a difference, even if you are going for 0 degrees. Also this concludes a completely automationed sunday, with the most viable result being... unsatisfactory.

Ok, seeing people's horsepower numbers...... how??? Are these like massive 6L V8s? Made a 4l V8 NA and was finally able to see 460 HP, but the power band is awful. Turbo V6 is currently my best engine, but its hard getting much more than 360 HP from it due to size and money limits.
Finally passed the 2:24 mark, but the thing has effectively 0 driveability and grip......

Re: BRC QuER - Hockenheim 1000 km 1976 [OPEN]
not really comparable, the race track is a faster and less corner-y track.
my 2:15 on the ATT came out 2:26 on the race track
i just could NOT find turbo setups to be advantageus, brought the NA one down to 2:25, but i cant bring the turbos lower than 2:26,5

Bob, how awful is the powerband? I am running exactly the similar engine setup by the looks of it, but it's pretty good up top, even though I'm running quite a bit less CC
