Default Think I will see 600rwhp

I will be going in for a tune this week hopefully, and was wondering if 600rwhp is hoping for to much, or possible? Most mods in sig I will be running 12-14#'s of boost, sdce 8 rib setup. The things that I think might hold me back are the fuel rails which are stock but will be getting others soon, and my twin intercoolers. I will be going to a front mount next year but for now I am stuck with the ones that come with the kit.
What do you guys think?
Thanks for any input.

I would certainly hope you would break 600rwhp dude with AFR's and 14psi of boost. If not, something is really wrong.

Shouldn't have any problem...a friend did over 600 with stock heads and a mild blower cam on a GTO.

I have pretty much the same setup you have. I'm gonna go out and predict your intercoolers will restrict the flow of boost - inefficient - and you'll probably see around 8lbs - happened to me but i only saw 7lbs w/ D1 w/ the twins. I'll say 500-515rwhp. If your lucky and the I/C flow that much boost, you'll easily see 600rwhp. Is this on a dynojet or stang dyno? How much does your car weight?

A FMIC would be a good choice down the road!

Just my .02 Good luck and have fun with that machine!

There are some very afforadable OBX style intercoolers on eBay that will handle the flow and those IATs all day... at this point it's just a drop in the bucket.

Default Numbers In

Not quite what I was looking for but close. 560rwhp and 505rwt Seeing 10lbs of boost. I was fairly impressed with the power at that boost but I thought for sure I would see more boost with the pulleys Im running (7.25 crank and 3.7 blower). It is also realy hot out here in northern cali and I know thats not helping with the power (102 during the dyno pulls). My air inlet tempetures were 140-160 which was causing the computer to pull out timing, and Im sure the intercoolers just arent very efficient. I will be installing BAP and fuel rails soon hopefully that will help so I can take it up a bit more than the 6200 or 6300 he has the limiter set at.
So what do you guys think?
Thanks to Nick at newtech performance for taking time on the weekend to get the car tuned, I know you have been busy.

That looks good for the gas out there.If you pulled off the inlet hat it probly would of gone over 600rwhp easilly and made 14+ lbs of boost.

Those are still some pretty devastating numbers man, especially for a street car that can be daily driven. Nothing wrong with those numbers 10psi! You add another 5psi and you'll be SMOKIN! Way to go man, congrats!

Default just a bit more

Thanks guys, I will be doing the fuel rails and boost a pump first so I can take the rpms up a bit more then the front mount probably next jan-feb. Im hoping that will help the boost a bit. I would like a reliable 600 horse daily driven car, so I can live with the lower boost for now.
