Question 400 rwhp

So is it safe to run 400 rwhp on a stock Allison 5 speed? I know the rule of thumb is 90 extra rwhp... So wouldnt that make the truck about 400 hp? If not is it safe to run that on a daily driver and can it be achieved with ppe boost valve, 4" strait pipe, and best for last efi live??


Thanks Dylan,

look at it this way...
lbz example:
360 stock figure abotu 20% loss for rwhp..

stock rwhp +/- would beabout 288rwhp
90rwhp minus 20% = 72hp tune

288+72=360rwhp......

And thats pretty much the limit....

LB7's have 240-250rwhp stock.

EDIT: or what MM said, 350ish should be safe as long as you arent towing or anything.
