Bolt on power expectations?

So, I currently have a ported throttle body, flowmaster outlaw catback, k&n typhoon intake, and a tune. If I add TSP long tubes with cats, what kind of power will I be looking at? Thanks for your input everyone

LS3 manual right?

You can expect roughly... 410-420 rwhp depending on the dyno for those mods.

Drop the Typhoon CAI and add a Cold Air Inductions Cold Air Intake (or Rotofab) with a washer relocate and a scoop to get the most of your CAI.

I have Long Tube Headers, Cold air inductions CAI, + tune (ported throttle body doesn't add any significant HP, just allows MUCH BETTER throttle response).

With my mods I got roughly... what? Like 370 rwhp on a stingy dyno on an extremely hot humid day in San Antonio, TX (had to have been 100 degrees that day)

We can expect less HP for the numbers, but that's to be expected with auto's... nothing to be ashamed of though, our cars still keep up with the best of the LS3's with the same mods at the track.

I've look into the air scoop a lot and I really need to stop waiting to pull the trigger. Seems like a great mod that exponentially gains power depending on speed

That's pretty good. I'm going for the 400 rwhp mark but it looks like it's gunna take more modding than I want to get there

I don't really want to have to open the motor up. It's my daily driver and I don't want to risk problems. I know some cams are very reliable but I just don't want to risk it
