I can't remember what it was at but before the JLT it was 714 to the wheels. The 18s have revised heads, a revised IM, and upgraded cams along with more compression. So I am pretty sure it can make over 800 to the wheels with that mod list...but I would be surprised if they don't have headers on it too. Anyway, I could see the 18s getting over 800 on a generous dyno. The driveshaft, axles, and engine internals are what I would worry about at those power levels.

You can disagree, you know we cool. But, I still don't buy it. That mod list was basically fueling upgrades and a charger. Nothing else. It's not putting down 840 hp. Sorry, it's just not. And you did say a key word........a generous dyno. As mentioned, I can take my true...........true 740 hp at the wheels Zl1. (And let's be honest, we all know Matt's dyno kills HP numbers, I could of gotten another 20 out of it). I can take it over to LMR's shop and he'll get me 800 to show up. Now, I can get on the net and claim a 800 hp car on stock blower. Of course, we'd all know that was crap, but that won't stop me from claiming it.
Think for a second. A stock '18 GT is base lining around what? 420 hp? If that. Adding some injectors and a charger is just not going to throw down 840 hp. It's just not. There were no other mods listed on that "made up build sheet". Now, I can understand if it had intake/headers/exhaust and a fuel power adder AND the blower, then I can buy the 840 number. It's just not happening as a stand alone bolt on and nothing else.
Now, every Mustang guy is going to claim they now have a 840 hp Mustang by just adding a charger. It's never gonna stop. haha.
Next, we are going to hear about a stock........blower only with fuel and tune hitting 1000 hp. This is fake news at it's best.
