HP estimate....

I'd just like to help my friend estimate his power gains after his mods are done. He will have Injen intake, ARK N2 catback, SS/SC injectors and a tune. I'm thinking he will be right around 170-180 whp. Does this sound about right to you guys?

Unfortunately no. Most SS/NA make 150 wheel. So 20 hp gain is roughly 170 whp. I don't think thats to far fetched for the mods.

depends on the tune i would say.
the intake and exhaust is probably conservatively giving 10
so if the injectors and tune are doing their job. i agree 20 would be a nice result.
let us know how it goes.

And not crazy like some saying the cat back is worth 20 the header is worth 10 the DP another 10 the intake 15 so that means I'm pushing 205 at the wheels! WOOT! LMAO! Ricer math is awesome!

Not at the wheels thats crank HP. At the wheels we're pushing in the 150's in stock form.
