Another "how much power will this make?" post

Alright I was just wondering. How much can I achieve N/A without changing the TPI out, or the heads, or the cam? hooker 2055 headers, 3" catco cat, hooker catback, custom CAI taking air in at foglights, port and polish plenum/runners/base, and maybe an airfoil? Where do you think that would get me?

Because thats probly where I'll stop before I plan out a good combo. Might port the heads too I dunno really it all depends on money and how the car treats me.

those mods might be worth somewhere in the area of 15-25 hp.. the exhaust is the main obstruction.. deal with that first.. maybe someone else will chime in

I got about 25 hp (crank) with the exhaust and CAI, least I did. You may pick up a little more since I originally had the dual converter exhuast. As for porting and polishing the intake I don't know..

Well I kinda knew the exhaust would be worth that much. What I really wanna know is what I will be at if I do all the things I mentioned....
