yea somewhere in that range.....i wouldnt count on more than about 255-260 though.

and im gonna be frank with ya here. flows suck!!!! i had em, then i switched to slp, and WOW....it pulls more up top. flowmasters are restrictive and they will rust eventually. why not go ahead and geat SS pipes. the intake is just about a waste of money. save your money and slap on some stickier tires ( something that youll actually see results with)
It's all in your head sir. Swapping mufflers will do nothing more than change the tone.
I hate to be a dick, but a straight through muffler will out perform a chambered muffler in a F/I setup because it is less restrictive. However, on a bolt-on GT there probably is absolutely no difference in power levels using one muffler over another.

250 to 260 WHP depending on how good the tune is. On a generic tune it might not make quite as much, on a good custom tune its going to make right around 260-265

Did the OP ever say he had an auto or manuel?

Some magazine article dyno tested an 03 GT 5spd and picked up 30-32 HP(240ish RWHP)after they added mufflers, CAI, T.B/plenum, UDP's and a 93 tune. The T.B/Plenum was good for 17HP with 2" mufflers and the stock intake tract. I would say OPshould be around 250-260RWHP.

Its fairly depressing how much money you can throw at these things for minimal gain... if I didn't enjoy working on my car for fun it would be an even bigger waste of time. Unless you are planning F/I or N20... it's just a little bit futile.
