Default rwhp with HO whipple?

Kit should be on in the next few weeks and was just wondering what rwhp I should be putting down with the 10psi pulley?

Be careful getting caught up in the numbers. There are many variables. Like these different style dynos. A car my make 450 on a dyno jet but may only be 405 on a dyno dynamics.

I think that's about the limit for what you want to put out on a stock GT motor anyway, so what's it matter?

You can push the motor past the limit withthis setup, so do yourself a favor and get it tuned properly. Any canned tune you get will be fine until you get to a dyno tuner but i wouldn't want to wail on the motor using it.

You can run higher hp than normal limits with the Whipple than another forced induction set-up?

Yup, they only number to get caught up in is the Boost. 10lbs is safe. Get what you can out of that and then tame it down a bit. All cars will be a little different as will the tunes. But it's upping the boost where you get into a lot of trouble. There was a post about it awhile ago that explained it all...
