The 720s should limit you to under 300 rwhp. But yeah, take it to the drag strip, compare your trap speed and track weight to a few HP calculators (search google) will give you an idea what you've got, not that it matters, trap speed tells the real story.

Not tuned correctly...barely 200.

If tuned correctly, it should easily do 270.

is there some sort of tuning guide out there, like what values to shoot for when tuning your car?
