One thing to remember when considering correction factors, is that on a turbo'd car, elevation doesn't make "AS" much of a difference as it does with a N/A car, unless you're running the turbo to it's maximum potential.

So taking this into account, 550 WHP uncorrected on a turbo'd car that isn't running close to it's max potential means that the SAE correction to 609 WHP is going to be greatly inflated.

A true correction factor that takes the turbo into account might add around 15 - 20 WHP, not 60 WHP.

At the time I posted the numbers of 609 WHP, I should have clarified this more. Although, I have to admit, at the time that we dyno'd, I didn't really think much about this little fact.
