Maybe. Maybe less. Maybe more. Your car might be an overachiever. The Process is a big picture view, but each individual car has no guarantee of hitting exactly 25%..
There are a myriad of tricks and details that yield HP at the rear wheels. Some cars respond well to some of them. Some cars respond very well to a balance and blueprint, others, not so much. Sniff around and see what the experts on your engine have to say.
But, just off the top of my head, folks have done things like this to chase 'full build" power.
- Test multiple heads to find the stock examples that flow best.
- Test Multiple intakes to..." " " ".
- Buy buckets of stock pistons to find the lightest and balance to that.
- buy Buckets of XXX part, to find the lightest and ..." " " ".
- Build may headers looking for the best toque curve and Hp.
- Build extravagant cold air boxes to pull the most volume of the coldest air.
- Tweak engine oil pumps for proper pressures.
- Install crank scrapers.
- Spend days dyno tuning with the ECU to build the best fuel/timing curves.
- Tweak fuel pressures and control fuel temps.
- Reduce rotating masses wherever possible.
- Improve cooling and flow efficiency.
- Flow bench all porting mods.
- Reduce driveline rotating mass.
- Reduce internal engine drag.
And on and on....that's just off the top of my head...and a good engine builder has a far far better list. (But, he keeps his mouth shut, no doubt)
