240ish... 2vs do respond pretty ****ty to boltons. The catted x is probbly your biggest gain. The rest is honestly only worth a few.

I would be pretty happy with a 10-15rwhp gain. Let's think about it, cold air intake, TB/plenum are all meant for better throttle response, not HP, if you bought them for HP gains, well, probably not a great idea, I wouldn't expect more than 5-7rwhp gain from those three combined. Then the catted x + catback adds 8-10rwhp so you're probably somewhere around 240-245rwhp.

It's no 4v, but I'd say that it gets pretty average gains to bolt-ons compared to most cars in the world. LSx, 4v's are just a different story.

240rwhp you should think about getting a blower or a n/a 4v.

Probably not making 250.....the 2vs suck when it comes to bolt ons.

Unless you consider a supercharger a bolt on item

S&W ram air intake, PP 75mm tb/plenum, Bassani catted x-pipe, Magnapack catback.

Edit: 2000 Mustang GT 5-speed.
225 base wheel rear hp
4 for the intake
7 for the exhaust

225+11 = 236

pending on the dyno 230-242rwhp
