I've heard companies advertise 10-15 horsepower, which I don't think you'll really feel. It isn't too much trouble to change them. Just figure if the $/hp is worth it to you.

If u go bigger than stock then u will gain a reasonable amount of horsepower. Doing a cam swap would be a better way to go if u r lookin at $ to HP ratio. Other than that ya its worth it.
