Half second quicker than YOUR stock time, or some magazines stock time? Just askin, cuz 2 hp is worth about nothing in the 1/4 mile. Even if you want to consider it a 2% increase, that means you would cut .35 of a second off you're time, all things being equal...but if you happen to have a slightly lower temp, or a slightly higher tail wind, or a slight change in relative humidity, or a slight change in tire pressure, or a little more or less caffeine in your quick twitch system, or a stickier track, or a slightly higher rpm launch, or just Zeus helping you, going a half second faster than 17.856 is like a 350 lb chick losing 12 lbs, she's still fat...
