How much HP does it take to trap 108mph?

That was my best run this year with the mods in the sig. Just curious but how much HP do you figure it takes to trap 108mph?

That thing claims I have 344hp at the wheels...thats way to high but might be close to the hp at the flywheel. I was thinking with my current mods that I had somewhere around 305-315rwhp.
