Question Will this setup put me at 400rwhp???

I am doing a cam and this was recomended to me.
its a comp 224/228 .581 .588 114.
i want it to be streetable, but if possible still kick *** and not die out.
is this a good cam? will it put me at or over 400 rwhp. if not what would you guys recommend? i really dont know much about it.
right now my mods are slp lt, catted y, lm exhaust, 160 thermo, tb by-pass, bmr torque arm, lca's, panhard bar. also dyno tuned. dynoed at 335hp 357 tq.
by the way its a 02 ta firehawk m6.
thanks

imma say 385-395 as a guess, but there are always tho that do better then others... if u want look into a f13 futral cam.. ive heard it has great drivability, better then most even untuned, it would put u at 400 i think

its 230/232, but dont be scared off by the specs.. i heard it drives better then some 224 cams.

Doubtful with stock heads, IMO. Close, yes. I'm betting 385.

I have a similar cam, it's the Comp 224/224/.581/.581/112 LSA. I made 381 without the underdrive pulleys or a ported TB. Probalby would have been real close to 400 with both of these, so with the 224/228 and all the bolt ons you should be really close.

I am installing a TR224 on 112 LSA soon and I am aiming for 390-400rwhp. I have been told it's very possible with my mods below. We'll see.

I run that cam. It's a top end screamer. 4.10s needed for the low end.

F13 is awesome. Click on FUTRAL for the specs ----->
FUTRAL sells that cam. It's proprietary.

No. It will chop, but it won't die out. Tuning lets us run lopey cams nowadays. It will be fine.
