Default How much HP with new mods?

I was wondering how much hp i will gain with Pacesetter LT's and True Duals?
It is a x-pipe with dynomax bullets dumped at the axle.

Right now i have stock exhaust with a cutout in the i-pipe. (under rear passenger seat)

Thanks

Agree, 40 seems to high, that is cam swap #'s.

Maybe 25-30ish after tuning.

Thanks for the input guys. 40hp would be great. There will be some tuning done right after the install.

I'm following your foot steps.

It was cool hanging out with you at the meet. We have to do it again after my LT's and duals are installed

Your car sounds great, its ****** loud!! Listening to your setup made me very excited to get mine put on.

I gained 26rwhp after a tune (19rwhp before tune), but my car is an A4 and I only have a y-pipe w/ dumped bullet.

I think it would be closer to 20-25RWHP....dont think it would be anywhere near 30...IMO.

gotta get a tune, LT's increase volumetric efficency in the midrange by ~10%, which is enough to cause a lean condition, knock, and end with your car running with retarded timing, making the power drop as much as you gained with sheer airflow. so unless you just want a louder car with no power gains, get a tune
