Default Max power from Roush roots blower?

I know the Roush blower (not the R2300) is pretty much the lowest grade blower you could buy for the S197 Mustang. But I was curious, how much power can you make with these kits? Is it possible to hit 400-450whp with one safely?

Highest I have ever read about was around 450rwhp, but that is maxing out the efficiency of the bower.

I dont think I would pay my hard earned money for one, but if it was really cheap, see a few posts up, or I already had one I would work with it.

I would probably tune it for 420ish rwhp and put a 50 shot of nitrous on it.

But if you want big power, check out Whipple, KB, Saleen, TVS, Edelbrock, etc.

I'm not really in the market for a blower right now, I was just curious to see what kind of power can be made with one. Of the few roushcharged Mustang's I've seen at dyno days, the all produced around ~380whp.
