Default HP guesses
whats up guys, I'm about read to get tuned in about 3 weeks. just wondering what you guys are thinking for some hp numbers on pump gas first!

408ci,(AFR heads, LS6 intake manifold, stock throttle body) 9.7:1
huron speed s484 kit, twin 45mm gates. twin bovs
built 4l60e with pro torque 9.5 inch converter. 3600 stall. ( Switched to TH400!) Waiting on everything in the mail!
twin 450 pumps, id1300 injectors.
5 inch front bumper exit.
HP tuners.

hoping for 10 lb tune and then 14lbs before i leave for the day on pump gas.

to finish it off, 10 bolt rear and 28 inch tires!

Might as well replace it too while your doing the Trans. Any hard launching and it'll be gone.

You could nurse it and softly roll into the power, but it's still a risk.

You can run a lot of boost on pump gas. In shooting for 24-26 lbs with 10:1 compression in the next few weeks. Have been running 20.
