Sure it is... if you assume the SC kit has a relatively flat torque curve, but dropping off slightly closer to redline (like the stock curve but bumped higher).
Then just use math HP = TQ*RPM/5252
The AVO makes more peak torque relative to it's peak HP because it makes considerably more torque in the midrange than it does at the higher rpm. If it held on to the torque a little higher, than you would be seeing 250+ hp with the same peak tq.
But you may be correct. The SC torque curve may drop off just as hard. In which case it would make very similar peak numbers as the AVO, but better under 4000 rpm.
