Looking for opinions on this setup I wish i had a dyno around where I live I would take it but what does everyone think or anything I should add? car runs like a TOP!
Tuned PCM by Tunedbyfrost 6500 rev limit
Pacesetter 1 3/4 headers w/ magnaflow system
walbro 255 lph fuel pump
new rings, crank and rod bearings
ARP Rod Bolts
QTT cam 232/236 .601/.601 112 LSA
Lunati Lifters
TSP 7.4" hardened push rods
Cloyes billett timing chain
Ported LS6 oil pump
MLS head gaskets
.241 head casting milled .010, valve job, bowl and throat blend
PRC dual valve springs
LS6 intake
fast 42lb injectors
all new engine gaskets and sensors
ls2 style starter
spec stage 2 clutch
motive 4.10 gears
rear end rebuilt with Ratech bearings

Think i'm getting 450 hp or am i being to unrealistic?

IMO, 400rwhp is very realistic. I don't see any reason why you wouldn't make at least 400rwhp, but 450rwph no. There's more power to be had with higher compression, a FAST92 or 102 intake, 1-7/8" headers, and a 3.5" or larger y-merger exit into a 3.5" or larger cat-back system, and also a UD crank pulley an a catch can if you have any more than a slight oil film in the intake.
No, starting with a new y-pipe merger all the way out the back or all with a cut-out before the differential like this:
What you could do is install a FM 3" to 4" y-merger, then into a 4" electric cutout, then a 4" to 3" reducer back into your 3" catback. This way you will have 10-15 more hp available when the cut-out is open, but when you want to just cruise again with a mellow exhaust tone you just flip a switch.
