lol
On the 2.2 an intake will give more like 5whp and a cat-back more like 8-10 whp. I have a full exhaust and CAI, and I put down 140whp which is about 165 to the crank. Thats 20hp over the factory flywheel rating. I'd highly doubt someone can squeeze 30hp/whp? with just an intake and exhaust.
Thanks again for that, lsj. Its great to see you support us 2.2 guys.

If you're looking for some resonable gains go for the Electric SuperCharger. With a few car batteries it can move your engine to about 100kw stronger (134 HP).
Here's a pic of my setup. Even Michael J Fox and Christopher Llyod couldn't catch me.
