Will I break 200 Whp?

I have my list of mods planned out, do you think I will be able to break 200WHP?

2005 R53:

-Cravenspeed 17% pulley (installing this week)
-DIY Cold air intake (done)
-Colder spark plugs (installing with pulley)
-NGK wires (done)
-Airtec intercooler
-Milltek exhaust
-(possible) ATI 2% superdamper crank pulley
-380cc injectors (or would 440cc be better?)
-Tune

You should. Back in the day I did 205whp with those mods, and 234wph with bigger injectors and a tune

Should....but a lot depends on the condition of the motor....heck...many of us tuned and modded cars that were barely out of warrenty....most have many more years and miles now...

You should be close.
Personal I'd skip the 2% over Crank Pulley since your going with a 17% for the S/C, and the 380's should be just fine, since you're not doing a Header or Cam.

He is correct as I'd use the standard ATI damper

After those mods you have listed I go for a mild cam as it will be a nice addition to that.

Your only real power mods in that list are the pulley and tune. As others have said, don't do an overdrive crank pulley. Go with ATI if you want to replace it. With a good tune on 380cc injectors you'll probably be right around 200whp.

Ok I will definitely be going with the regular ATI damper instead of the 2%. Will the 380's still work with the WMW mild street cam? Also what would be the difference power/idle wide between the WMW mild street and Crower NS1 cams?

I forgot to mention that my r53 only has 47000 miles on it and no previous track time. It appears to have been babied by its previous owners.

Update: I am pretty sure I'll be going with the Invidia N1 catback instead of the milltek. Will this hinder me getting to 200whp?

Exhausts do not make a big difference unless paired with a header and cam. You'll be fine either way.

OP: you might also call around to some local muffler shops to see what they charge for a custom exhaust. I have the Invidia N1, and while I'm very happy with it, I paid a bit over $650 (w/o shipping). Last week I stopped by a local shop to get a bracket reattached, and they'll do a custom Magnaflow setup for $400-$600.
