Default Estimate on Numbers?

Alright i never thought ide see the day when i posted a thread like this (then again never thought ide buy a supercharger) but the day has come. car is an auto 02 GT
My car put down 230/270 with catback, drop in filter, and diablo tune.
mods when i get it all done will be
o/r x-pipe, catback, 75mmtb/plenum, vortech V2 with a 3.33 pulley (i think he said he bought the smaller pulley from the stock vortech kit)

-I want to reach 400 and i still need an intake tube (mine is meant for dual t/b) so if u all estimate lower numbers than 400 ill shoot for a power pipe to up the boost and possibly order an intercooler as well. what would you expect if i got these two items as well?

Thanks for the help everyone.

well i can tell you i hit 400 rwhp and 380 tq but my car was a stick and it was aftercooled. With stock heads and mainfold with 3.33 pulley should put you at 10-11 psi you will probably yield 380 rwhp.

hmm that wouldnt be terribly bad. im thinking i need an intake tube so i might as well go with a power pype for the increase psi but im afraid i might run into heat issues with to much psi and no intercooler. Guy before me had it on his car with a meth kit and was making 412, it was stick

well if he had a meth kit and stick and was at 412 you are looking at 370-380 depending on the tune. I wouldn't recommend 3'33 pulley with no inner colder and would say hold off on the power pipe as well you don't want to go beyond 10 psi with stock motor.

Dyno numbers can vary. Even when comparing the same type of dynos. I've seen this time and time again. Personally, i wouldn't put too much stock on a particular number. If the blower, and everything is setup right, then it makes whatever it makes. Take it to the track and see what it can do.
