Default help please

hieveryone, im indeed a newbiee here. I own a gto and im thinking about trade it for a srt4, but i need some help.. The srt4 that im planning on buying has a lot of stuff done and i would like to now ahead of time how much hp to the weels is putting down. Keep in mind this car was own by a police officer so obviously he was not concerned about speed wise lol. Ok so i opened the hood and i lookedmost of the mods..blow off valve, aftermarket intercooler, aem cold air intake, im assuming this car is tuned..not sure though? i took it for a ride and boy is it fast? It was pushing 21psi and i wanted to know how many hp to the wheels 21 psi can put down? thanks for all the help guys

the stock engine can handle 500hp stock..but to be safe people only take the stock internals to 450hp...if its at 21psi its at about 370hp to 400hp...

the car is nice.
if you can get pictures of the motor it would be great to see what kind of turbo it has.
i think its a pretty good price...
