600HP is a realistic goal. The C11 made 1200HP during qualifying!! The US M119 has a 10:1 compression ratio. I don't know if euro spec is higher, it may be? Anyway, running 1 bar or 14.5psi with 10:1 is pushing it. I wouldn't suggest pushing it any higher than that with the stock compression ratio.
