Just about every CARB legal supercharger kit on the market for ANY vehicle, Ford, Chevy, NISSAN, etc. runs around 6 pounds of boost. Our experience with the 3.5 liter showed that 6 pounds of boost would generate around 100RWHP gain. Obviously this math is crude and general but if you take into account that bone stock 370's are baselining in the 275 RWHP range than you can assume that our forced induction kit will be running around 375 RWHP in Stage 2. Stage 2 is an intercooled, street legal, warrantied kit.

It will be plenty capable of acheiving more power than that but then it won't be smog legal anymore.
Do you have a completion date you are working towards with the supercharger kit?
