The expectation based on Whipple stats from their website is to hit about 505 at the rear wheels or 600-650 at the crankshaft or fly wheel.

Supercharger RW SAE HP: 508 ( around 635 at the flywheel)

Supercharger RW SAE TRQ: 492

Stock 6.2L RW SAE HP: 335 ( around 416-418 at the engine)

Stock RW SAE TRQ: 366

The assumption here is that there is about a 20% HP loss between engine and the rear wheels. If the tests above come any close to reality,that's about a 165 HP gain.

The numbers are copied from the Whipple website Click here to see whipple sc

Of course this guideline stuff it all theoretical... the proof is when you get your own truck tested on a dyno.

One of my other vehicles (an SVT COBRA) uses a roots Eaton charger which delivers less boost than a twin screw like whipple and it's still pretty nice indeed so whatever the final numbers, I expect it to be sweet.
