How much HP should i be getting?

With the mods that i have done to my 95 Z28, what sort of HP and TQ numbers should i expect to see when i go to the dyno?

Edelbrock TES Headers
Hooker Cat Back w/glasspack instead of muffler
stock cat
KN FIPK
Holley Airfoil
1LE elbow
Jet Stage 2 Power Tuning Module
3* Valve job on heads
160* Hypertech Stat
SLP Fan Switch

BMR STB
Edelbrock TQ arm
Lakewood Rear Control Arms
SLP SFC's

Anyone got any ideas? there is a guy in town that wants to race who has a RX-7 with a rebuilt 305 with a cam and carb upgrade. anyone think i can take him? And should i get my top speed limiter removed before i try to race him? Unfortunately the Jet Chip didn't remove it like i thought it would.

Can anyone guess what my numbers might be?
Thanks guys

300hp If the RX7 is less than 2940 lbs. you will not win.

I'm gonna say you'll put around 265-270 to the wheels. The tes headers have a 1 1/2 in to 1 5/8 in steeped header. Considering 1 5/8 headers are already small for our cars i would go with a different header if you haven't bought the tes headers already. Also the stock cat will be a bottle neck, i would spend the 80 dollars for the off road pipe.

305's are peices of crap man. You have technology and displacement on him, but he does weigh a good deal less than you... do some weight reduction if you haven't already and there's no reason to get your top speed limiter removed.. You're dumb if you race anything over 120. A quarter mile for you guys from a stop would end no later than 105. I think you would be able to get him, but i dunno much about 305's.
