Stock 250-260 RWHP +

CB = 10
LTs= 15-20
pulleys = 5
CAI = 10

Between 285-300 RWHP maybe a little more. Roughly close to a stock LS1

Seeing as how you have an 02, which tend to be the most powerful of the LS1 breed, you should be at a minimum of 295 RWHP STOCK. With your mods, I put you at 330 RWHP easy. With that 3200 stall of yours, you should without question win every time.

You will be able to take him pretty well, especially with that stall.

This December I am putting in a high flow LID, SSRA, and Subframe Connectors. Where do you think my rear wheel horsepower will be then? Also, as far as the subframe connectors go, I have heard it is day and night difference but what exactly do you feel after you put them on? any examples???

You'll get better luck with answers to those in the LS1 areas here.

The lid will get about 8. The SSRA won't add any to the dyno, but you will feel a good deal on the highway. SFC are amazing.
