Default What will my horsepower be?

Curious to see what power range you guys think I will be in with this build.

2008 C6 'Vette

-Procharger D1SC with 4" pulley and Dallas Performance Big Mouth Kit

-LQ9 engine built by LME (forged pistons/rods, ported ls3 heads, custom grind cam - 227/240/50 636 lift 115 lsa +4)

-OBX 1 7/8 headers with Magnaflow axelbacks

-McLeod RXT Clutch

-AEM Meth Kit

That's all as far as performance goes. I do have a ECS fuel system, BAP, TiAL q BOV, and a MGW short throw shifter. And of course dyno tuning.

I know this is a bit broad just wondering what to expect is all. I was thinking around 700hp.

And the builder should be able to give you a much better estimate than us, if he knows his stuff too.....

I've been told 750-800...I guess that's about right.

Power of a thousand stallions.

Ok maybe not. But around 700+ would be good.

That's a good guess, I forgot to include I have a AEM meth kit.
