This GSR engine produces 275 HP, is bored and/or stoked to 2.1 L, HC (11.5:1) runs on pump gas and is street legal. Remember you can still safely goto 2.2 L from the B18 series. I think it would be reasonable to see 290 HP from the 2.2 L.

Here is a guy's car. He has a spooned-out 2.0 L claimed to 290 HP. What happens if that goes to 2.2L?

That guy claiming 290 hp out of that setup is so full of shit. You can't always believe everything you hear. If I don't see valid dyno graphs to prove his allegations, I will continue to doubt everything he says.

Edit: The 1/4 mile time says it all.
