Default power expectations

Hi all, good weekend?
I'm off to oddkidd on friday for a set up and was wondering what i should be expecting (hopefully not bad news like last time at powers)
i got the engine second hand from someone braking an rst but was on different inlet to me.
spec is...
2.0 zetec bottom end with JE low comp forged pistons, lightened and balanced crank with bronze bushes, ARP rod bolts and a focus rs head gasket with ARP head bolts. A fiesta rs turbo head (previously reaconned by Burton) with new valve guides, piper cam and vernier pulley. alloy radiator,big front mount intercooler,360’ thrust bearing T3 turbo,Collins -31 acctuator ,5th injector ERL MF2 controler unit,cone filter ,silicone hoses,turbo back full stainless exhaust.

your thoughts

Well i would expect a solid 200bhp without issues from a decent engine and components. It all comes down to the metering unit and fueling.

In your case a clutch too.

Common sense should have seen you changing the clutch mate if you had the slightest doubt... Hope you get it sorted and some good power mate .
