Default how much HP ?

I have 2004 5 speed GT with the following mods Bassani stainless steel X-pipe with high flow cats (also has pipes that take place of converters) Single Chamber Flowmaster Mufflers, and cold air intake. I was just wondering how much hp and tq do I have at the flywheel? I know no one can answer this dead on, but what would u say it's around ? I was wondering if it would be worth getting headers and which one are good priced as well as have worthy gains?

Probably about 280 or 290 or so at the flywheel. IDK. HEaders are only worth it if you're getting Long tubes. Otherwise you wont see that much of a gain.

hmm 270-280...... I got long ways to go then. I want to be somewhere in the 300hp range at the flywheel. I just got the car couple of days ago with the mods already on the car. I guess I have to put some more performance parts into it. I just don't want to be beat by stock camaros or maximas.

Dude. Unless you get a supercharger or N20 you are going to get murdered by stock LS-1 camaros. I have full bolt ons and 4.10's and anything with an LS-1 still kills me.
