I'd guess a bit more than 330.

Still not sure the diff between a vta dump valve setup to re circ and a "screamer"?

the blower will be the limiting factor in that case, sort yourself out a 20g TD05\6 and you should hit 370...

maybe a screamer has something in the trumpet that makes the 'screaming' noise?

If it's on standard injectors (440's) and that turbo the max power will be approx 340, but it will all depend on the RR/ambient temp etc.

Thats a brilliant spec, enjoy the car mate, don't worry about the numbers

sorry m8, just got the emails now...you can buy a proper one from ebay etc...or you could have a diy job done...not sure how its done myself but its some pipe that vents back into the turbo/exhaust turbo which instead of going back in is vented to atmosphere (something also to do with the wastegate)

An easy 320+ I would have thought, probably around 340bhp (not sure about where the VF29 maxes out)

Who does the mapping at TDI? That's the most important bit in getting the result you want
