Too anxious to wait for dyno

I feel a little dumb asking a question like this, because there's no way to know for sure, but i just finished building my 92 Talon, and i'd really like an estimate as to how much horse i SHOULD be pushing, i know that quite a few of you have probably done some similiar bottom end mods and so forth, so any input would be really appreciated.

Here are the mods i've got so far:
JE 9:1 Forged Pistons
Balance Shafts Eliminated
RC 550cc Injectors
Walbro 255 lph Fuel Pump
Lightened Flywheel
CenterForce Dual Friction Clutch
2 1/2" Cat-Back with 3" Dump
Hi-Flo Cat
Apex SAFC
Boost Controller
Accel Ignition Wires
2g Exhaust Manifold
Ported o2 Housing

I do plan to dyno the car not too far into the future, but since i've just finished building the engine, i need a good 500 miles to break it in, assuming nothing goes wrong. so i'd just like a number to make myself feel better about all the time and money i've spent on her. Thanks

Well, thats not much to go on. I assume your still running the stock 14B? But at what boost? I would say that at 20psi on race gas,you could very well lay down around 270-280whp. You also did not mention a DP. If it is still stock, that will be a major restriction, and you may fall a bit short. Probly more like 250-260whp. It is very difficult to play the guessing game with HP numbers. But I think you will very close to these numbers. :)
