So 275hp to 346hp.

So there’s definitely more to that but understand your premise. Your turbo can’t magically produce 25% more airflow without getting outside its efficiency island so IATs can get out of hand if so. What usually happens in situations like this is the engine becomes more of a torque monster in the mid range and you make similar horsepower numbers up top.
Now I admittedly don’t know anything about the 4 cylinder turbo and its size so maybe there’s more headroom available than I know about. But it’s always fun to talk theory.
