It just depends on how the stock tune is now... some cars are better than others..they are all different.. You might gain 3hp, or you might have 20.
It isn't a set thing..but be sure to post in the Dyno section when you get numbers.. If I was you I'd swap back to the stock MAF if you still have it.

Also, sometimes aftermarket MAFs are harder to tune.
And the throttle body spacer won't do anything... all your other mods are good though.
But, my car has pretty much the same mods(stock maf, no spacer)...and it put down 330/340 untuned.
i have a 2002 Z28 A4
mods:
SLP lid and free air mod
ported TB
MSD wires and NGK TR55 plugs
Kooks 1 3/4 headers w/ catted Y
GMMG catback
Transgo shift kit
after tune made 341rwhp and 348rwtq.
all cars are different and will respond to the same mods differently. there was just a car posted by one of the sponsors that got around 370rwhp with just bolt-ons.

I now have QTP LT's and was able to easily pull my friend that was always able to pull me. He put down 355rwhp/365rwtq (not exact, but real close) with the same mods, minus the ported TB and he has Pacesetter LT's and the K&N FIPK.
With the mods on my car now, I SHOULD be able to see 370-375 after I go back for another tune.
350 WILL be possible with LT's. Hell, I made 345rwhp/360rwtq with a tune and my only mods were Lid/Filter, 85mm Maf, Ported TB, NGK TR-6 plugs, MSD wires, and a magnaflow muffler.
