Default Power guesses?

Anyone with a combo like mine actually had their rig dynoed? I'd love to strap mine down someday, but for right now there's more important things to spend money on.

Fuel pump(s) and injectors are stock (for now).

The HOT Juice for the 555 Cummins is rated at +150hp / 400 lb.ft. at the wheels.

Just curious.

I was guessing somewhere in that range. The biggest variable, I think, is the aftermarket turbo. The hot juice was making the stocker cry, spiking 44-46 lbs of boost. I bought the HTB2 more for reliability then for performance, but the butt dyno says the truck is considerably stronger now then it was with the stock charger.

I wouldn't mind seeing 500hp at the wheels, mostly just because it's a nice round number. First thing I really need to do is retire the stock lift pump. I thought about stacking, but the 2003-04 HOT juice already covers pressure, timing and duration and I'm already beating the stock injectors pretty hard. I'm not a huge fan of injectables, though if I did, I think water/meth would fit the bill best as I tow a lot more then I race.

I figure I'll just stay where I'm at for now. At least till my injectors start giving me fits, then I can see a set of FLUX 1's in my future.
