What are these LS3s making with say an intake and cut outs mounted shortly after the cats? I imagine at least 20 whp?

Are you tuning it?
No. Not 20 without a tune. maybe 7-10whp, MAYBE. Expecting anymore would be naieve, if you get more great but I would by no means expect it. Cutouts are for sound. You are not gonna run wide open everywhere and you are placing them after the cat which is the most restrictive component on this car.
The "LSX" manifold without major NA Power adders (heads/cam/headers) or a Centri blower is a waste of money. If you want the look, have your stock manifold custom painted and save your money.
If you tell me or a few others in this thread your goals we can put some mods together for you to consider. I would rather you go in with realistic expectations though.
