Guesstimate?

3.1L (stock bore)
204/214 @ .050" .422/.444" lift (at the valve)
ported exhaust manifolds
lightly ported heads
ported intake/plenum
3" exhaust
16G (550cfm) Turbocharger
Large (21x9x3) FMIC

I'm just curious what you guys think for power output on this motor I've put together. Stock 3.1 = 140/180, so let me know what you guys think at 6 and 10 psi of boost....

If you actually manage to foce 550cfm into the engine without breaking something... 400hp...

It's a 16G... I was running a 2.8 with a 14b (6psi) and quickly got the bug for more... so now I'm doing a 3.1, and gearing up to put the 16G in. It's ported/clipped, running 550cfm just over 15 psi, but I'll be running more along 10 psi...

I've already had one guy tell me like 280/360.. but doubling the stock power, with just 10psi? I don't know... so I thought I'd get some guy's opinions, that have worked with turbo's and such before!
