Default What HP Gain Do You Predict?

Hey guys. Wondering what your opinions might be on the hp I can expect from my upgrades. Currently I have a LS3, forged bottom end with stock heads and intake. 1 3/4 headers with an A&A vortech v2. Right now I have a 3.6 pulley and I see just over 8psi. I also have their older smaller intercooler that goes towards the passenger side of the car. Yesterday I ordered a 3.4 pulley and their newer bigger intercooler. I've read that most guys see around 11psi with the 3.4 pulley. Currently I make 610/570 to the wheels. What do you think can I expect with the bigger intercooler and the 3.4 pulley, 11psi vs 8?

Old vs new intercooler. Almost twice the length.

Just the PSI increase alone should be 45-60hp with all else being equal.

FedEx was good to me today. I'll be happy with 40hp but 50+ would be awesome. Can't wait to install these goodies this weekend.
