I will be getting my car dyno'd soon and will post my findings. I will bet on 15-25HP on the LS3.
Even between two back to back dyno runs on my own car, there was a 5hp difference so unless the parts you are putting on provide a larger gain, then most differences could be attributed to randomness.

By any chance, did you do a baseline dyno on your car before installing the new exhaust system? If not, getting your car dyno'd now won't provide accurate info on the gains from the system, unless you are going to swap the stock exhaust back on during the dyno session to get that baseline number.
