I have the Trick Flow cams. Go to You Tube and type in Trick Flow cams stage 1-stock exhaust. That is my red 04 GT.

I say at least 30hp, maybe close to 40??? I gained 29hp when I added my Magnaflow 2 cat X Pipe, Magnaflow Catback, 75mm Throttle body and C&L Intake. The cams should give you enough for AT LEAST 40 total. What are you going to pay for the mods you desire? For $1500-2000 used or $5000-5500 new you can drop in a Paxton2000 Centri, forget the cams and intake, a gain AT LEAST 150hp. I made the mistake of adding almost every bolton you can think of at the price of at least $3500, then got smart and installed my Paxton2000. In hindsight I should of went straight for the SC. Think about it bro.

No way you gained that on a stock 2V...

What did you have for mods at the time?
