The apx. loss is around 28 %, with a manual gear box.

554 HP (-) 28% = 398

Assuming,.... your motor needs more fuel, and proper tunning on the distributor & fuel, it should be over 400 RWHP.
Thx, Kevin. Yea - somewhere around 400. I hear the Superformance mufflers are pretty restrictive so I'm telling myself not to be dissapointed if it's on the low side. Doesn't really matter though - I don't need more umph!
