I'm not sure if this post belongs here or not but it seems that I am most likely to get an answer with merit from this group. Anyways, I have a physical test coming up in which I need to be able to do a 5 minute warm up then for 15 seconds pedal and obtain 10.8watts/kg... with maximal effort... I'm wondering if there are any suggestions on how to test my current output and also to train to achieve the highest level possible.
RC, I've done a test similarly 'nutso' to this several years ago being a research subject for a paper on the benefits of administering hGH releasing substance. [...] I just did my normal workouts while administering the releasing substance for 6 weeks, but knowing that I'd be re-tested there was some incentive to 'train' for the retesting, I guess.

That seems like an odd experimental design.
That depends on whether the experiment was measuring the effectiveness of hGH as a performance enhancer, or as a training motivation enhancer.
