Arrow Question about HP&TQ gains to expect from mods

I have lt rs and just put a CAI on. My next project is long tube headers, high flow cats and a axle back system. Probably will be the American Thunder package or slp louad mouth 1. Of course I would have it tuned ( kinda have to after all of that) So my question is to you guys is what kind of gains can I expect out of those mods? Im learning as I go ha...

Depending on your stock numbers, you should see 40-60 HP to the wheels.

Check out the links in my signature as I have quite a few different Camaros with the same mods as you are getting. Everyone of them responded well to LTs, CAI and CB.

I would get some pre-Dyno runs before starting any mods.

Good Luck!

$400 + Dyno time. Is what I charge. Now if you get your parts threw my store, I discount the Dyno Tune and Dyno time. ( Im also competitive with the Mail order guys) If you already have your parts, Ill still discount due to the fact that you are a Camaro5 member AND a member on Active duty!

Check out the v6 section man........

3 of us just put up threads about what we have. We all have American Racing systems combined with either the MRT v2, or flowmasters or magnaflows.

Here is my thread:
http://camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=80496

I even did a quick swap with the L99 mufflers, I have a video of that in the original post of that thread.

I haven't done an actualy dyno yet, hopefully saturday afternoon I will, but the butt dyno is loving it. But on my 4th run EVER on a drag strip, the car pulled a 14.7 sec and at the time I still didn't know what I was doing. I can definitely do a crapload better, but I am pretty sure because of that time, I have gained a lot of power in the car.
