I heard long tube headers are good for25 horses which I believe you will be grinning after all you have the CAI. Get the pullys too. I have them and I can feel a difference. I'm thinking in the far future of getting my cylinder heads re ported. I heard that is good for 35 horses to the wheels and is about 1500 dollars. I just saw the 3100 dollars there. If you can renig I would, I believe they are over charging you.

My thoughts exactly. For 500 bucks or so, 25hp is nice. But for $3100, doesent seem too great.
I mean if you already bought the parts, good luck and I hope you enjoy them.
If you didnt, and have plans of supercharging, you may want to reconsider.
I mean looking at it from a blank slate. A intake, tune, full exhaust, UDP, etc run what 4 grand? And make like 320 RWHP.
A supercharger is 5 grand, and can make around 450 RWHP. Big nut to swallow, and of course it is 5 grand installing it yourself. But 3100 doesent seem too bang for the buck ish. But it will probably sound great.

The headers and exhaust should be good for another 25-30 hp. Make sure it is tuned well. Long Tubes + install = expensive
