Default good setup?

Hey guys, I'm looking into getting a charger built. A 66/71/14 S400. If I decide to do this I'm likely going to get rid of my bully dog sticks and step up to 250 horse DDP's. With everything else in my sig do you think this would be a set up that would be able to do well sled pulling and still be somewhat streetable. What kind of power might I see from this set up? Also may stack a smarty with my comp to help with spoolup. Thanks for any input guys.

Thats gonna be a big turbo to daily drive with but its manageable with a 6 speed. Smarty will help with spool up and alot while driving it but will hurt you on a dyno just incase you ever want to dyno it. Make sure you got a clutch to withstand sledpulling also, I would recommend a Southbend 3850 DD. Sounds like an awesome setup and im sure you will be pleased. Lucas made 853 with sovp mach 7's 66 and some laughin gas.

Thanks for the input! How much power do you guys think that will be good for? How would the EGT's be? I'm really tired of looking at 1600 in the blink of an eye on the street.
