Default Rwhp?

I'm just wondering what you think my rwhp will be with my set up after a good tune? I'm going to be getting it tuned next month but it's driving me crazy looking around on here and being the only one guessing on where I should be. So I figured I'd ask everyone's opinion with my set up and I'll post the results whenever I get it tuned.

Car see signature and let me know! Thanks!

Obviously depends on the dyno, but i'll guess around 410-420 rwhp

That's about what I figured...if I'm 420 or more I'd be pretty happy with the set up

Just don't get your heart set on a certain number though, since it means very little if your car is in the proper running condition.

99% of the vehicles I tune the owners always guess way too high for the mods done. 410-420 doesn't seem unrealistic.

No mention of who ported the 243's or what at least was done, no details on the "LT's".

I'd say 400whp +/- 50whp...
