M7 or A8?
Not familiar with the A&A kit but with the ECS (Paxton) kit can make up to 700 RWHP on 10-10.5 lbs of boost. If you pully it down, up to 900 RWHP is possible with the ECS Novi.1500.
If you're not running Methanol or racing fuel, you'll want to keep the 7 lb restrictor plate and 550-600 RWHP is about what you can expect and probably "safe" if the tune is good.
Over 700 RWHP and you really need to think seriously about fuel pump and piston/rod replacement if you want safety. The pistons tend to be a weak link when pushing over 700.

I had about 10,000 miles on my car with a supercharger and meth kit. With just a supercharger on any of the kits you will be looking between 570 to 600 RWHP depending on location temperature humidity elevation etc.

I always hear everyone say that blowers kill cats and I was curious if anyone had that issue on a C7 so far. I doubt 1200 miles is enough to cause a problem unless you did a lot of top end pulls.

To my knowledge, only a few cases of blower cars having cat issues. Most everyone is going with a catless x-pipe. I'm running race cats with my new headers, so we'll see if they live?!?!?
