Default How Much More HP With a Tune?

I just installed my cam and springs plus mt LT's and was wondering how much more HP I would see with a good tune.

Any input is appreciated.
Thanks

The duration numbers on his cam have to be advertised. If he had that much @ .50 he would have a monster cam.

The numbers are advertised, not @.50. I'm used to the older style of cam numbers for SBC/BBC, which did not focus on duration @.50 as much, or at least IMO.
