Default How much rwhp with these mods?

Hello all. I have a 2002 Camaro Z28 with these mods so far:
SLP MAF
SLP Cold Air Kit
SLP Air Intake Lid
SLP Smooth Bellows
SLP Traction Control Logic Module
CORSA Performance Cat Back System
BMR Driveshaft Safety Loop
BMR Boxed Sub-Frame Connectors
HAL QAL 12 Way Adjustable Front & Rear Shocks
HAL QAL Front Drag Springs
GM Rear Springs for a '93-'02 V6 F-body
Weld Draglites (front & rear)
MT ET Streets and MT ET Fronts

I have yet to install these mods:
Hooker Headers Long Tubes
Off-road Y-Pipe with Flowmaster Merge Collector (no cats)
Dual QTEC Electric Cut Outs (will be right behind the headers probably)
ASP harmonic balancer & alternator pulleys w/belt
MSD 8.5mm Super Conductor Spark Plug Wires
NGK TR55 Spark Plugs

What would be a good/near estimate of the rear wheel horsepower from my car after I get all these mods installed? My goal is to run in the mid 12's on motor. I was just wondering if this would be enough. Thank you for your help.

This might give you some insight. I am running...

SLP Lid
K&N Filter
Ported and Polished MAF (at time of dyno)
FLP Long Tube Headers
No Cats w/ 02 sims
Borla Catbac exhaust.

Bone stock motor internals

338rwhp - 352rwtq
and these numbers vary depending on car (Z28, SS, Trans Am).

Basically the only HP mods you have are the lid, maf, and catback. You didn't say if you had an auto or a m6. I'd guess you'd pull 300-310 with an auto, maybe 10-15 more for a manual.

Once you put on the longtubes and all your other mods, you'd go up pretty good. You'll probably run pretty quick too.

See my sig.

Yeah, sorry. Forgot to say I have an auto. Been as quick as a 12.95 (at the very cold SLP Day in Ennis last Feb.) but usually runs in the 13.20's or 13.30's now in the summer time. Wanna go a little faster. The long tubes are going on this weekend. A friend of mine has a shop and we are gonna use his lift so hopefully it will not be too bad. Thanks for the help.

If all you're really looking to do is drop that 1/4 mile time, throw in the headers, install a converter and some gears and you will EASILY see mid 12's. No problem. I'd guess you'd dyno pretty good with a 2002. They dyno very well stock so through an A4 with those mods I'd say ~350 RWHP or so. Conditions and dyno being the variables, of course.
