Default 550 rwhp 1/4 mile guesses?

my car is a cam only 6 speed camaro. it makes like 405rwhp, and i plan on installing a few things in the spring, including a nitrous outlet kit. I'm looking for 530-550rwhp on spray. i won't be taking in to a track any time soon, until i pick up a better rear, but just curious what the car could run assuming it hooks and i shift perfect with 550ish rwhp? shooting for a 3400lb or lighter race weight, and the car has a mcleod rxt clutch.

What type of rim and tire setup will you be running?

should hit high 10's @ 130 or so. my junk pile ran 125 mph with 515-530 rw around 3700-3800 lbs. a good 60' will be the main thing.
