The reason you can hear the turbos more prominently on my CL is because I am running a prototype Renntech ram air system that is very different than the currently available Renntech airboxes. It is my understanding that Renntech is finalizing R&D on this item and may make it available for sale in the near future.

Compared to other streetable cars that are not severly modified, the CL stacks up well.
Going from memory, modded GTRs with stock turbos run in the mid to high 170s to give you a benchmark.
Stock 2009-2010 ZR1s - about the same ball park - mid to high 170s.
There was, I believe, a Prototech 700 hp (flywheel hp) 996 Turbo that ran a best of 177-178 from what I recall.
Modded Ford GTs with pulley and tune running mid 180s.
Twin Turbo Gallardo Spyder went high 190s.
And few Twin Turbo Ford GTs well over 200. In fact, one nearly went 270 (Heffner).
