Torinalth : A "bullit intake, long tube headers, strait through exhaust, pullys, and upgraded ignition system with a bit more fuel..." isn't gonna net you 300rwhp. Not even close.

And your estimates for the blower are on the high side. To get 375rwhp the 4.6 would have to make around 440hp...an increase of 180hp. Your not gonna see that with blower added to a stock motor.
You can't be serious. That's not a 5.0 with crappy stock heads we are talking about. I had a V2 S-trim @ 10 psi and made 358 rwhp & 386 rwtq through an auto on the bone stock longblock. That would easily be 370+ rwhp with a stick. With the turbo at less than 6 psi, we made 388 rwhp & 427 rwtq at Atco on a 95 degree day. Depending on how deep your pockets are, you can make 350+ rwhp easily with just about any centrifugal blower @ 8-10 psi and a good tune. With a turbo setup, you can do that on accident with the boost controller at the lowest setting.
