1990 that will have the following installed this weekend:
Warner-Ishi (RH-B5?), with the Thunderbird upgrade on the compressor side @ ~10psi
I think begi manifold (or fm)
begi dp (or fm) I forget
370cc injectors
link ecu w/ afm delete
clutchmasters flywheel (8lb~) and stage one clutch
intercooled w/ bypass valve
2.5'' exhaust w/ hollowed out cat but with muffler
It will be dyno tuned immediately after having this installed.
Any ideas of about how much horsepower to expect? Thanks!

It isnt the fuel pump that limits you. It is the injector sizing. You can either upgrade to large injectors or get a RFPR to push more fuel for them. Realistically the larger injectors is the path you need to go.

Basic description of fuel system: The stock pump is only keeping 60psi in the rail before the fpr opens and lets the remaining pressure back to the tank, and it's a very easy job. When required, the injectors open to squirt fuel, and how big they are determines how much fuel they'll squirt. So your injectors will squirt up to 750cc of fuel per minute AT 60psi
If you buy an adjustable fuel pressure regulator, you can raise that pressure a little and get a little more out of your injectors. So your 750cc@60psi could be more like 850cc@65psi. I'm sure there's a formula to find out the exact flow at higher pressures, I don't know it.
But the stock pump doesn't run I to issues until upwards of 100-120psi, so don't replace it unless its having issues.
