Default Guess The HP Gain on These Mods!!!

This Thursday, I'm having the following Mods done.

Kook's Coated 1 3/4 x3 Headers
Kook's Y-Pipe W/Magnaflow Cats
Corsa Cat Back Exhaust
TSP Lid
LS1 Edit

I thought it would be neat if I started a Thread and let everyone guess the HP & TQ gains. I will post results as soon as I can. This car is a bone stock A4 2002 Z28. I mean bone stock, with factory lid filter and everything. It dynoed at 281 RWHP & 309 RWTQ with 2,000 miles on the clock. It has been my Wife's daily driver since new. I'm looking for 30 HP & 30 TQ.

Next Mods will be a TQ Converter,Trans Cooler, Shift Kit, and a Cam.

I say 50/51 I'm surprised that your hp was that low on a 02. They are usually above 300 knowing that they have less restrictive exhaust manifolds and a ls6 intake.
