Default Bolt-ons expected HP

I've got more than just bolt-ons but I want to know how much hp I should be expecting from what I have flywheel and rear wheel thanks for any feedback! I have stage 1 comp cams, bbk under drive pulleys, pro comp intake manifold, pro products 75mm throttle body and plenum, bbk CAI, pypes long tube headers, h pipe, magnaflow car backs, 30lb injectors, sct MAF sensor. I want to know what else I have to do to get to 400 rwhp or if I'm already there. I don't want to go forced induction or nitrous, I'm an all motor guy. Thanks!

My man I was trying to go the same route you were going (All motor). After joining this forum several years back I was told something that is sadly true. 2 V's do not respond well to bolt on's. I would say you're probably at 280ish to the rear wheels and maybe 310 to the crank. If you're going to shoot for 400 (on all motor) it's going to cost you a pretty penny.

Getting a 4.6L 2V to 400RWP is going to be next to impossible. FI is the way to go on that one. If you insist on NA, you best swap in a 5.4L 4V and go from there.

Unless your willing to build a 7500+ rpm 2V you will not see 400 rwhp n/a. Your combo sounds like it would be in the 280ish rwhp range if the tune is right.

That's unfortunate to hear. With all of the money I dumped into it I could of had a kenne bell on it but I guess that's my mistake. Thanks for the feedback.
