Why idle? EOC requires 0hp

Good question. My turbo is oil cooled. I'm not sure repeatedly boosting at the maximum output and then cutting the oil supply would be a very good idea in the long run.

What did you base the numbers 15hp for steady state and 45hp for accelerating from 45mph to 67mph on?

The 15 hp is an approximation it takes my car to keep going down the highway at roughly 55 mph.
The 45 hp is the average available power I pulse at. You can see the hp lines on the bsfc map. Close to the maximum power output available in this rpm range.
Honestly the biggest guess here is not the power requirements, but whether the 1/3 pulse 2/3 glide ratio is right. This is what have the biggest impact on the outcome.
