I picked up 11hp/11tq over my Hooker catback.

Obviously gains will vary between exhaust systems, dynos used & Motor Setups.

i would guess 8-12 hp also. my car actually picks up 10 rwtq with the cutout open but that is also on a 408 and as stated setups vary and so does gains. it should be worth trying.the afr will probably change very little,probably not worth having to retune but that is just my opinion.

well the cams i have heard before and after have dramatically changed an exhaust's sound. i could imagine a cut-out with a cam not sounding much different then a top fuel dragster only slightly tamer.
