Default ... corrected mass flow question... CMf = WHP... why or why not?

i have been working with compressor maps, trying to match a turbo to my setup to see if i could reach my goals... and i was wondering if corrected mass flow can be used as a good estimation of power output... i have read that CMf x 10 equals whp... so for example 40 lb/min would equate to about 400whp... is this accurate method of estimation or not?... if not, what is a better way to estimate?... thanks...

Using the lb X 10 method is a pretty good way of seeing how much horsepower you will be able to make. hmmm *thinking*

pm me with your setup..
I can determine hp & tq figures for any level of boost
if given the NA dyno plot, and if there will be no changes to the motor setup .
