That is the very definition of a DYNO-QUEEN.

WHat is the point of posting "a number" then in reality the car doesnt run that on the road/track?

This is no longer a street car car then - it is a race modified car driven on the street - huge difference, and also rather pointless in the end.

With this kind of ecu you have streetcar or racecar with one ecu.
So - by the time you have finishd you have $10 or $15,000 in custom race-only control system.

Basically for he price of a new F599 you now have a "custom controlled, dyno queen, high boost not-quite-a-race-car-not-quite-a-street-car"
