Default needed opinions on what my horsepower should be?

back in april, i dynoed my 2001 WS.6 with nothing but an exhaust cutout and it dynoed at 322rwhp/339rwtq.

Since then i have installed BBK longtubes and an ORY-pipe along with a tune. im trying to understand why i only picked up SEVEN horsepower with the longtubes, ory and tune from what it originally was.

After the tune it dynoed at 329rwhp/349rwtq. Is this normal? is the difference in the two dyno's that drastic?

Any ideas why i didnt pick up any more power than that? I picked up 12rwhp from my stock 310 baseline alone with just installing the cutout.

You are only comparing peak to peak where as there may be points in the
graphs, particularly in the hegher rpms, that the advantages could be in the
18-22 hp range. Your overall average power throughout the entire powerband
should have gained considerably. A before and after 1/4 mile comparo would
confirm the results also.
