horsepower question
Hello,
I installed a Thermomaster chip, 160' thermostat, and a coolant fan switch in my car, unfortunately I installed it at the same time I installed a few other mods so I could not determine exactly what the chip improved in my car. Also, I didn't get a chance to dyno the car before I stored it for the winter. I was wondering if somebody could perhaps approximate for me how much horsepower I gained by installing the chip, and any other advantages the chip offers me according to my other mods. Any additional info you could give me about other products that might improve my vehicle for the future. Thanks a lot, I deeply appreciate anything you can tell me. My application is as follows:
1989 PONTIAC GTA 5.7 350 STOCK B.H.P. 235
-SLP COLD AIR INTAKE
-FLOWMASTER 3-CHAMBER MUFFLER
-SLP FLOW BOOSTER
-MSD 6A IGNITION
-MSD SUPER CONDUCTOR WIRES
-T.P.I.S. MASS AIRFLOW SENSOR

warning: grab your ankles cuz you're going to hear alot of bad things about that chip 
seriously tho, their application is pretty much on a stock engine, left that way. They're crap, they just try the shot gun affect to see if by chance they actually do help YOUR application (not likely)
