ya ull see about 15-25hp gain over stock motor. you won't feel much until u get a tune. my advice if ur gonna do internal work wait on the tune to save money. if ur just gonna run a bolt on car then get it tuned rite away. also depending if u run cats or no cats. with cats u see about a 5hp loss.

20-30rwhp untuned/tuned can be expected from LT's and new y-pipe. High flow cats on a stock motor aren't going to rob any noticable ponies.

It all depends on setup and what mods you have. there is no set numbers and different headers work better with different setups.
For n/a LT is the only way - scavenging thats what its about.
For FI any tubular header, LT, mid or shorty - they all work with boost.

Major sound difference for me, especially when I get on it. Definitely noticed a power difference.
