Default How much HP should i have with these mods

hey guys i have a 95 transam automatic and i am wondering how much rwhp im pushing i dont have that many mods at all the factory rating is 275hp to the crank so that will be probably around 220rwhp im more than likely wrong with that number the mods i have are pacesetter long tube headers no cats, intake 52mm TB with air foil, ac and smog delete and a 125 wet shot so im guessing all motor i might have 250rwhp and with nitrous i might be at 330rwhp thats just a guess what do you guys think

Your right with the minor bolt ons at 250-255 for an A4 car. With a wet 125 shot most systems with wet are rated at wheels, dry shots are rated usually at the crank. Anyway worse case scenario 340-350rwhp. With a good tune and car running proper it could be higher.

My 93z M6 full bolt on car with 125 wet made 391rwhp. Without nitrous my best on the same dyno same conditions same day 284rwhp. This was mail order tune and not sure what my A/F was, forgot. I can remember him saying I was rich.

If your tuned, could be 280rwhp through an a4 on motor, 380-400 on the spray. What's it trap in the 1/4?

May I compliment you for having understated HP expectations. Too many folks get grossly inflated expectations and hurt feelings.

The 260fwhp b-bodies put down about 220rwhp stock through the 4l60e and little heavier 8.5" 10-bolt. F-bodies were likely a little underrated factory to keep the hp far enough below the Vette despite the same heads/cam etc.
I think the other estimates sofar are on track.

I haven't taken it to the track yet so I don't know my times or mph on the 1/4 I also have 3.73 gears but I know those don't add hp that's why I didn't put them down
