Yes, should have mentioned it was for bhp. Simply multiply the number by 0.85 for a rough AWD whp figure.

If anyone wants more accuracy, this website has a list of different calculators that can give you much more accurate results for anything from ETs, trap speeds, HP, 1/8 mi, 60 feet, gear ratios, and more: http://www.wallaceracing.com/Calculators.htm

Pretty sure mid 10s is the current record, i would assume they already have turbos? Anyway, I am positive others have the exact same Weistec turbos in their setup, maybe not documented well though as it is pretty uncommon.
Work with your tuner to show you the graphs, any tuner worth their grain of salt is doing a custom tune for these kinds of numbers you are hoping for -- especially with an extensive list of mods.

also any recommendations on HPFP and LPFP on the cheaper end cause spool is asking for a lot.

after this i’m getting my car retuned by AMR for e30 and wmi from weistec
I know there's lots of variables here, and my comparison isn't like for like.

But my C400 hit fuel cutoff (maxed fuel system) trying to beat my best 1/4 mile time of 11.91. That was with e30 (only tuned for 93 octane).

That puts me at probably around ~400whp.

My only mods are Eurocharged tune, Modalworks intake, and JB4 added boost through BCM.

Anything over 600whp will be a great achievement in this platform. You will need rods piston LPFP &HPFP please use spool performance and also there intercooler. You don’t need meth. ECU tune along with TCU tune blend around e50 will be fine im pushing And you better have a tuner that knows what they are doing in writing you a file. And having a dyno as well.
