Default Mods RWHP Guess?

Hello fellow mustangers,

Can anyone give me an educated guess on the RWHP for the following mods?

Stage 1 Blower cams
3.73 Gears
Manley rods
Forged pistons (Low Compression)
Vortech V3 Non-intercooled
SCT Chip
Stock pullies
5 speed transmission.
MAFia Mass Air Flow Calibrator
Anderson Powerpipe

This is what I have on my newly rebuilt 2004 GT. Any response will be very much appreciated.

Thanks!!!

Your're best off just going to a dyno cause there is no specific percentage on drivetrain loss. Most people use 15% drivetrain loss but it's never right cause every vehicle is different and etc, etc.

That should help you understand

depending on amount of boost you run, probably 450-550 on a street tune I'd say

tell us what size pulley and how aggressive is the tune? the hp range is gonna be really wide just guessing without knowing that, could be anywhere from 400 with a super easy tune to 550ish with an aggressive tune and a good amount of boost.
