We've touched on this subject before, and I have to say I don't doubt that at all.

The V6 DI engines are capable of making some pretty impressive power figures with just 6 - 8 psi of boost. (450+ HP at the crank) But past that amount of boost, we typically see fuel issues where the stock pump can't keep up.

That same small amount of boost on a modern V8 DI engine should be super impressive.
