Banks style, non-intercooled, restrictive air filters........I'm guessing 350 hp at the crank tops. Unless there are some internal engine mods that they don't have listed here.
For 50k invested I hope they redid the engine.
Its kind of like doing a christmas grab bag, you never know what you're going to get. Could be a 350, could be a stroked 400 block.......

Now if they have done some engine work, all of this goes out the window. Like I said, it might be a 427ci engine with some wicked heads and those turbos might be undersized for it. It could be in the 6-800hp if that's the case.
But I also don't think those air filters will flow 300hp a piece. They might though. It would be interesting to see if there are any hp gains by pulling the air filters.

What a strange car. It must have been built in the late 80's or early nineties.
Looks good from the outside, and with some finishing touches could be a really sweet car. Hell, it might already be a really sweet car.

Assuming the turbos are sized correctly then it has nothing to do with the compressor maps. Its all about the engine. If they are running a crossfire engine, stock 235hp or so, and add boost to that. You can figure a max of 8psi or so non-intercooled. Which is a 50-60% power gain. So you are looking at 350-375hp ideally. So a guess of 350hp would be about where it would end up without the intercooler.
Other than the color scheme, the gauges are a nice fit.
