Default Dyno Tune Gain

Hey guys, I have a 2000 WS.6 M6. I just have a filter, lid, Ported TB and cat back. I was wondering what kind of gains anyone saw after getting a dyno tune with these type of mods? I'm heading down to Sacramento soon and will stop by Force Fed Performance to get a dyno tune. I'm guessing maybe 15-20hp at the motor? I know, I hate when people ask "how much will this mod net me", but I'm hopin someone has had an actually experience with this. Thanks A lot!

Your guess is probably as good as mine. I would go as far to say 10-15 though because it's always better to expect less and potentially end up w/ more

If you plan on doing other mods (headers, intake manifold, cam, etc.) soon, i'd hold off on the tune to save some money and get it all tuned up when you're ready to go.

I had my car tuned right after I bought it. The owner before me had a full exhaust on it. Stock lid and everything, just exhaust. It was a very hot day and the baseline showed 335rwhp and I forget the torque. After some tuning and a few more pulls, it made 346rwhp! So I saw an +11hp gain from a dyno tune with very few mods. Very much worth it to me, the car seemed to run a lot smoother too.

well i didnt get a dyno tune because i do my own tuning. without the tune my best time was 13.7 after i borrowed my buddies wideband and did my own tuning i got a new best of 13.3 every 10 hp is worth a tenth in the 1/4 so i gained around 30-40 hp well found hp anyway....
