help with vortech supercharger setup

Ok everyone I just bought me a 99 FRC covette with a vortech kit on it. It ,has stock 243 heads, Z06 cam, long tube headers, z06 exhaust,fast intake, and a few other small mods. What do you think I should be able to make power wise? I dont feel like this car has all the power it should. It feels about as fast as my 99 camaro did when it was making around 400whp. What can I do to check to make sure everything is running correct. Should I get a boost gauge? I just feel like something is not right please can someone help!!!

Well it's a good idea to have one, and a wideband.
Maybe you have a really bad boost leak Or something?
you could be making 500+wheel.
