Horsepower Speculation

I have a '97 WS6 w/ 28,000 miles on it. Can anyone suggest how much Hp & Tq I am making with this set-up. I would get it on a dyno but I live nowhere close to one. Also, any suggestions would be helpful.

Magnaflow Catback
Pacesetter LT & ORY
LT4 Hotcam
Plugs & wires
K&N filter in the stock airbox
PCMforless tune

Thanks

I'd guess around 275 rwhp.

Little help guys. Im leaving soon for Iraq and would like to have some kind of an idea so I can start figuring out what I want to do next. It will help kill the time while im over there and give me something to look foward too.
Thanks guys

I don't really know but I would recommend you buy a CAI such as Moroso, K&N, SLP etc and pick up 15+hp. You are choking your car with the stock airbox and K&N filter.

Might be a stupid question but does WS6=M6 or do you have an A4? I know my LT1s but some of the f-body particulars escape me.

With an M6 I would guess more like 310 on a Dynojet. I put down 290 with a 10 degree smaller cam through an A4 on a Superflo which will tend to read lower, mine was rich too.
