Default Power estimation Turbo 4.8

Installing my MP 70mm on my bone stock 4.8 2wd RCSB this week.
What can I expect for power out of about 6 or 7 psi? I went 2 bar so 14psi will be my max for now, but since I have a stock 4l60e i think thats more than enough to kill it in about a week.
What do you think at 6psi? at 14psi? Intercooled on 93 octane. No meth.

Stock 4.8. Hard to say the cam is were you can make some good power.
Without that. I don't think you would get to 500.

Lol, exact same set up as me. 70mm masterpower on a bone stock engine (for now).

I agree with Rick, a good cam can make a big difference. Without it, I'd say just under 400 with 6 psi, around 475 on 12 psi. That's my guess.

You can usually count on a turbo making about 15-25 hp per psi.

I made 440 on 8#, 505 on 12#, 627 on 16#. Mp70 lunati cam and 16deg timing on all pulls. Also inject lots of meth. You will need a cam to break 500whp on 14# probably.
