So you are saying 6psi on a stock 5.3 motor is only worth 60 rwhp?

Exactly, but according to some, you can clearly see that I'm an idiot and have no effing clue...

Like I mentioned before, from import 4cyl cars to highly modified anything engines...when you add forced induction, results will vary. The op was asking about a blower, someone mentioned long tubes, so I simply gave him an idea of what to expect when having both.

I stand by my claims. To the op, if your stock 5.3 pulls 300ish rwhp stock, then you add a blower and long tubes (at the same time), set at say 6 psi you will be making 420ish rwhp.
