yep, and i think that myth that the Japanese 300zxTT's have different, smaller turbos is wrong. i will confirm because i have both lying around but i think everything is equal throughout the turbos.
and yes i just read that when Europe received the R34 GTR, it was dynoing well into the 320whp range. thats crazy when it is only supposed to be rated at 280ps which would make it about 230whp. a good ~100whp underrated, not bad.
not that this matters but chevy underrated the LS1 camaros alot too. this was because they didnt want people to know that you can get corvette 1/4 mile and dyno numbers in a car ALOT cheaper, offered by the same company.
