Can't answer the question?
Well i'd gather its more than .0003rwhp

my car dynoed at 245 rwhp/283 rwtq when it had the msd, ngk plugs, k&n filter (in the stock non ram air box), and ngk plugs. Since its an auto, that's a 20% driveline loss which puts the crank hp at around 300-305. That's more than the factory rated 275. I'm not saying part of that isn't due to GM's tendancy to underrate the motors, but those mods could have contributed some HP.
