What's the limiter set at?
Maybe worth thinking about a powerflex rear engine mount? As the engine moved a huge amount off the limiter in the video !
Where you want to go with the car now ?

the dude has figures from a reputable company.
yes, they may not be 100% accurate, nobody is saying they are. but no need to throw any toys out of the pram because someones got more power than what it "should" be producing...
end of the day, everyones enjoying their cars. so just go drive them and enjoy them

Its good to get on the rollers just so you have a rough idea of power and so you can highlight any issues but at the end of the day its how they drive like you say mate.
