Its pretty accurate! And if you use the formula to calculate airflow of your engine with boost (plotting PR vs LB/MIN on a compressor map) it will give you a rough idea on what HP you will make.
Like for example, 5.3 (figured 85% VE of engine only) with a max of 6k RPM and 8psi boost it comes out to about 52-53lb/min of air flow which should be close to 525hp at the crank. So figure another 20% off that for drive train loss and you get around 425-450hp at the wheels. And those are conservative numbers.
