Default HP Gain Question??

I am doing some mods to my car and am wondering what HP gains I can expect. I installed an SLP Y-Pipe last weekend and am waiting for:
SLP MAF
SLP Smooth Bellos
SLP CAI

I currently have the 345 HP option. Any Help??
Thanks!!

Any feedback you get is just guesses so you'd need a dyno for concrete info.
I'd say you'll get around 15 rwhp.

If you haven't ordered the parts yet, I'd port your stock MAF ends, skip the bellows or get the redhawk bellows for $30(cheaper than slp)--Not much gain maybe 1-2 HP-mainly appearance.
By CAI-do you mean the SLP lid? If so that's about 10 HP.

Good luck.
STEVE

Thanks Steve,
I oredered the SLP CAI. With that mod, I will have to cut out the plastic on the underside of the SLP airlid I currently have.
I've read in other posts that this is a "free mod." I'm hoping by ordering the kit, I will end up with something that looks a little more professional than just a hole in the bottom side of the airlid.
