Default Hp and trq estimates?

Im just wondering what my new car will be putting out. Ill be getting it a week or so but wont have money to get a dyno yet. mods are

The car is an auto

LS6 heads/cam package,
LS6 Intake
Pacesetter LTs,
ORY,
SLP loudmouth w Borla muffler,
strut tower brace,
subframe connectors,
3.73s,
SLP lid, and SLP Cold air package
K&N Filter
Tuned with diablo tuner

What kinda of numbers would i be putting out?

Now if i put a Underdrive pulley, E cutout, and 85mm throttle body what numbers would i be looking at bc that would be my next mods.

just going out on a limb here but you should look for cars with the ls6 engine(cts-v, vette) that have full exhaust, and thats a pretty could indicator of what you'll be making

You need the tune on this. It will run ok, but you're really short changing yourself and if you run it like this for long, you could POSSSIBLY damage something. At best, you'll be missing 20/20 on this. That said, 330-340 would be my guess, assuming a stock converter. You'll see a solid 350/350 through an auto with a good tune and efficient converter. Instead of spending $300-400 on the diablo, just pay for a dyno tune, you'll be glad you did.

wow really that low? and the diablo came with the car, idk if it has been tuned before. If i went with a 3600 stall would that wake the car up alot?

yes a 3600rpm stall would wake the car up, but it might dyno slightly lower with a larger stall like that, remember dyno numbers arent everything.

track times and really what shows a cars true HP.

thats what i have been told. Im guessing a 3600rpm stall and some sticky tires would be in the 11's
