hmm..I going to say, 520.
How much timing you plan on running?

1000HP - 490 = 510HP with 560 TRQ

As much as I can safely run. We are going to do a bit of tuning and try to get the best HP combo of boost/timing at or near 25psi.

The numbers are in...
With the bay temps hovering around 95-100 I got best of 480.8 RWHP and 561.8 tq.
This was at 24.5-25psi and 23 deg timing, and my A/F using the wideband at the shop was running steady mid 11's. Absolutely ZERO knock (C16 is some good stuff..)
Looks like I need a lot better intercooler to match my combo, but I am well pleased for now. Cooler air and a better IC should bump me over 500 pretty easily I think. Plus, I have a n/l torque converter which probably kills about 40RWHP ? or so vs a lock-up unit. I think a tranny and converter will be in my near future too.
Looks like Nicker on the "other" board got the closest without going over

Nice numbers.
Locking the converter when I dynoed my old combo, netted me 18 more hsp, and about 60 ft pounds of torque. It is also harder on your motor though.
Cooler air, and more boost, will make you more power. With 23 degree's of timing, you could turn it up to 30 safely, if the fuel system can hang with it..
