rwhp ballpark? I have installed (or in the state of being installed) on my 02 WS6: (stock LS6 intake) SLP lid, homemade airbox to hood seal & removed rear baffle from hood, P&P TB, Pacesetter headers, Bassani dual ehaust, no cats, HP Tuners, 3500 stall w/24K gvw cooler. Any estimates on the rwhp range I should be in? We have no local tuners, and I'd have to travel at least 2 hours or so to get to one... Anyone with a similar setup?
I'm thinking 310-320ish stock, +15-20 for the bassani (from dyno tests I've seen in the forums), +15-20ish for the Pacesetters and cat removal, +15 for the P&P/ SLP lid/airbox seal/debaffled hood, and maybe another 10 from tuning? That would be somewhere from 365-385?
Later this year I'll be adding a cam & heads package for some real power gains.

I think in the 340 to 360 range. Make sure you dyno with the converter locked if you want big numbers. I loose about 40 RWHP if I unlock the converter. If you've concerned about dyno numbers and want a true number to reference, maybe conside making sure that the car is dyno'd in "D". I've seen some tuners dyno in 2 and it might mislead you if you are really looking for big numbers to only find out the numbers were inflated.

Porb made 300-305 stock, With mods 340's is possible, the stalled auto is going to sap power.
Just for a reference my 2002 T/A non ramair, with SLP flow pack only mod, m6/10 bolt did 324 rwhp, put dynatechs and corsa on, as well as a 12 bolt and 3" steel DS I am hoping for 335-340 without tune.

I don't really care about numbers, just the performance. There are no local dynos around where I live, so I won't be able to get any real numbers anyway. I'm just curious about what kind of power I can expect to be running with the new mods. I needed to modify the car to offset the weight of adding a stereo system...

380whp isnt even GOING TO HAPPEN. You'll be lucky to see 300rwhp with that stall. Dont add **** up like a ricer, just be conservative and be happy with what you get. Auto's arent dyno queens.

I'm happy
with what I have, just looking to get happier 
... But regardless of the numbers, **** does add up. Headers will add power, duals will add power, etc...

Atleast 385rwhp if not a WHOLE lot more. You've done a lot of mods.

After all this stuff is installed and tuned in, I'll be looking at a cam & heads package. I'm eyeing the AFR heads and a magic stick.
Gotta ease into it, or my wife will go nuts. I just bought the car for $18k a few months ago, paid cash, and then bought the SLP lid and did the TB mods. She couldn't understand why I'd buy a car with 17k on it and immediately start hot rodding it.
The latest $2300 worth of goodies was my Christmas list. I just haven't had the time to install them all. I'm hoping to get it all installed over the next couple weekends. Gotta get 'em tuned in before my birthday & Christmas get here again...
