Default 400-450whp worthy?

Just wanted some opinions on what I might be missing. I'm really happy with my cars performance at 300+whp but it's time to move on up. I need to know if I"m missing something here. My plan is to get like 400-450whp on pump gas. Looking at these crazy people over at Clubrsx.com Top Ten HP list they were making like high 300's to over 400 on STOCK motors. Pushing 14-17psi. I was always told that with DC5 motors, 10 psi is pretty much as high as you should go with stock internals. When I first saw all those numbers on stock motors I was like How long is that gonna last them, some of them been running that for a while with no problems, but I'm not taking that chance. Let me know what else I'm missing and if this set up is capable of that much power. Jason (St00pid)....looks like I'm gonna be coming to see you again soon.
This my going to be my setup
Exedy Stage 2 clutch
Quaife LSD
Wiseco pistons
Eagle ESP H-Beam rods
AEBS Sleeves
Fuel pump
Fuel pressure regulator
Fuel return system

I don't see why you wouldn't be able to hit 450 with those mods. Most important thing is going to be tuning.

What EMS are you going to be running?

I agree on the tuning part being really important. Jason (st00pid) tuned it the last time for me so I"m sure I'll be in good hands. I'm running the Hondata K-pro right now and will be for that as well.

with that setup list, you cant really get an estimate b/c we dont know what platform you are adding those mods to or what turbo you are running...need more information
