Default most hp with radix and 5.3??

im fixing to put a radix on my truck and was wondering what kind of hp/tq numbers i will be looking at. i will have the same setup i have now but will lower compression a little. i plan on running 10psi, and no meth for a while until it gets hot again next summer. pump gas.

With the Radix and my current setup in sig I lost more than 2.1 seconds off my time NA!
Losing the Nerf bars, bed rails and spare might have helped a little. Lowering some too. I peeled the tow hitch testerday but cant get the darn tow hooks off!

Yea, I think Blownchevy has it with 504rwhp. That was before he added headers.....I don't have a clue where he is at now. Maybe he will chime in.

I don't put much store in dyno numbers,Flyer ran 11s with a Radix combo with headers and a cam.He was probably making about 500rwhp when it counted at the track.
