Normaly you gain about 18-22 HP from just headers the tune would add a good 8-10 and you will prob get another 8-10 with the borla opend up. So its safe to say any where between 30-40 hp. I dynoed 310hp and 326 ft/lbs before my headers. Then with headers,pulley,td's and a tune I dynoed 357hp and 369 ft/lbs.

So LT's and exhaust put you in the 30-40 HP increase range? How about if you are catted? I did a search and can't find real info on gains with putting LT's and exhaust on.

It is possible with a tune and cut out on an m6 car to gain that kind of power. Typical gains are 18-22hp with just headers.

I had the same gears and all mods except i had a ud pulley and duals. dyno'ed the numbers in sig. The gears will take alittle gain out of your rwhp but the track is where all A4's shine.
