That's highly possible, the question is (still) what engine, what ata, what RPM, what rad settings etc etc. If we talk about DB 601Aa at 1.45ata, 2500RPM and rad nearly closed, that's about right. If we get certain variability (say +- 3 percent), that would be fantastic as some machines would be able to get above the treshold as in real life perhaps.

I would really appreciate to get some opinions on numbers.
