Question estimates on horsepower

I am going to a quarter mile track this Saturday and was woundering if anyone had an estimate on how much hp I have....

Current mods;
2.8 pully
42lbs injectors
Hahn racecraft shorty header
Slp loudmouth catback 2.5 exhaust with a hollowed out muffler
Gm stage 2 tune
Stock intake
Irdium plugs

I am getting it professionaly tunned next month and putting a meth kit in. Thanks guys!!!!!

230-240whp i would say cause the heat soak with 2.8 and i'm sure your maxing out the injectors especially with the pig rich tune

Yeah I'm thinking I will do the cobra heat exchanger and prob step up to 60lbs injectors. Do you think that will make a difference?

with a tune yes for sure, that heat exchanger will keep your iat2 temps down so it'll give back some

sweet deal you might look into rotated mounts from ott also they'll help eliminate wheel hop just something else to fall back on. that tune will unlock quite a abit of power, who's tuning it? with meth i think you'll hit 260+ fairly easy

My Stg2 w/ 2.8 & GMPP Exhaust made 240whp on an outside dyno in 100*F heat, with high humidity, and IAT2's starting around 150+*F. About the worst conditions possible

No cooling mods and with 42's, im scared for your car, I would go with a 2.9 and you will make 250 whp a least and get NGK 1 Step colder plugs, makes the car happy.

Do you have the stock dp or aftermarket?
