How much should I expect?

Well, I am rebuilding my FC, replacing part by part, and Im really not sure how much HP to expect. Soo.. Heres what I have done, or plan on doing.

1990 RX-7 GTUs

Engine rebuild with streetport
Haltech standalone
Upgrade the injectorts (Im not sure which to go with)
Upgrade the fuel pump and rails
Stage 2 6 Puck ACT clutch
ACT Prolite Aluminum flywheel
Air intake system
Racing beat headers
Bonez high flow
Borla Catback

I was hoping for around 220-230 HP maybe 200 to the wheels. I just want to know what you all might expect and what injectors/fuel pump you would go with.

High 180's at the wheels, I doubt you'd break 200 at the wheels

maybe with ITB/cold air box, he can get to 200 if not real real close... if its staying n/a, correct me if im wrong, isnt the true dual exhaust better for it?

and please dont think im being a wise guy and busting you **** about your car, i'm not, im just giving some opinion that hopefully you might find useful.

im with icemark i'd imagine u be high 180 to low 190.

Yeah, its very very tough to get much past 170 retaining Cats and a simple stock replacement exhaust (and the Borla is nothing more than a stock replacement). The biggest gains on a Non turbo are in the exhaust.
