Default Upgraded Bolt ons

Setup is in my sig. My question is what am I looking at as far as HP gain by putting these upgrades on:

Switching from an unported FAST 90mm to a Tony Mamo or Vengeance ported 92mm intake
Switching from Kooks 1 3/4 to Kooks 1 7/8 x 3 or TSP 1 7/8 headers
ASP underdrive pulley
Meziere street water pump

Realistic figures....

Add 10 or so from the intake...

Add 7-10 from the headers

Add 3-5 for the UDP

Add 4-5 for the EWP

While ricer math would have you add all these together you may see a little more or you may see a little less but my guess is if you did everything it would be worth a total of 25 HP or so give or take a few in either direction.

That is certainlly a very solid gain....

Good luck...get in touch if you need some help on the intake
