10-20 rwhp, depending on the brand (style) and how close the AFR is to 12.8-13.0 after the install.

I went from 306HP to 344HP with QTP longtube headers + true duals with cats and mufflers, 349 after tune. Despite having an A4, you should make a good amount with a 98 as we have a rich tune to begin with along with the 28lb injectors.
