Default TB Bypass,EGR, etc

I am out out school for the summer and have nothing to do so I was going to try and do the egr mod, tb bypass and cutting the rain bloakcers out of my hood.......would these 3 mods be worth 10hp? If not Im not going to waste my time with them. Also I am planning on getting a y pipe and pullies how much hp should I expect from those two items?

No, you will not get 10hp with those. But do them anyways if you have some time on your hands. "Every little bit counts." As you begin to make more power, these freebie mods will have a greater effect.

EDIT: What is the rainblocker mod Since I don't know what it is maybe you will get 10hp??? However, a "Rainblocker" doesn't sound like something you would want to remove, IMO.

I think he means de-baffling his hood.
