Just think conservative, that way you'll be suprised when you find out the real numbers.

A total shot in the dark would be 35hp...upper rpms of course.

That is crazy..... the patriot site says 40hp alone with the heads, SLP says up to 25 with the full SLP system, UD Pullies "frees up" up to 25hp see what I mean??? A bunch of BS

Maybe 5rwhp with the UD pullies, maybe. I'd say your looking at, with a good tune and all, about 290-295rwhp. SLP's advertisement is just that, an advertisement, not the truth, same with Patriot, sorry but nowhere near 40rwhp with heads, maybe 40 at the crank, which is probably like 25rwhp, if that.

I would say you will be around 310-320rwhp. But if you go with SLP full exhaust setup the money to hp ratio really sucks. Shop around you can get the same performance gains from much cheaper parts.

take it to a professional. get svo headsport the hell out of them. head flow relates directly to hp along with the right cam, intake and exhaust setup. and drop the aluminum flywheel. u want billet steel. you will lose torque with aluminum. You can get way more than 35 hp with your budget.

My guess is 280RWHP before a tune with all of that stuff. Once the tuner is finished you should be +300.

I have not seen many cars with full LT exhaust with stage 2 heads + cams under 300.

One more thing.......with the stage 2 cams that thing will sound freaking sick (as long as it's tuned right).

You should be around 310-320. 99-04 stang with full bolts ons is like 270 RWHP, add your cams 20 RWHP and heads 25-30 RWHP for heads and a custom tune - is my thoughts
