How much power is possible?

Alright, so let me give you a rundown. 88tii Recently rebuilt and street port by a reputable shop with about 5k on the motor. i have a fmic, gt35r, stock primaries, 1200cc secondary, PFC standalone, upgraded pump and fpr, exhaust, and AEM meth kit.

So i'm wonder what kind of power i should be making with this setup.... moderate safely, so i don't pop the motor. I hear that 400hp (330rwhp) is about right without you needing to pin the irons and without blowin... just wondering everyones opinion.

sounds like a pretty good setup, in my non expert opinion i would guess 350 should be easily attainable, your could probably get more with higher psi #s but then your crossing the fine line of daily drivability and reliability...
ultimately i want mine to be 350rwhp daily driven so let me know how that setup works for you
