Default HP Estimate??

Hey guys I've caught the mod bug and was just wondering what kind of HP I would be looking at with this setup.
Magnaflow Tru X-pipe W/cats OBDII (I live in cali)
Borla Stinger Axleback
C&L Intake
UD Pullies
Custom dyno tune.

with those mods you should be very close to if not slightly over 300rwhp..I would guess based on the RIGHT tune you can get 296-305RWHP...

Nice that is exactly what I was aiming for. Does anyone have the magnaflowTru-X pipe w/catsOBDII and the borla stinger axleback?? I'm wondering how the Tru-X will sound because right now I have the stingers with the stock H-pipe and it sounds great. I don't want it to sound too raspy.

I'm contemplating the basani x-pipe with hi flow ceramic cats(not that it makes much difference) to go with my bassani axlebacks but that's down the road some, pullies are first. Ive noticed some drone in the car at about 1.5k to 2krpm when cruising with my bassani's not sure if I like that, but not sure if I can do anything about it either besides maybe go to a quieter muffler.

if you have drone now....changing the midpipe will only make the drone more pronouced. How much that x-pipe with ceramic cats going to cost you?? To me that sounds expensive and probably not going to be gaining that much HP, it will be more or a sound enhancement than anything else.

I was just looking into that setup....its says its 3 inch....we have stock 2.5 inch so you would be replacing everything. Not that this is entirely bad I guess but alot of work IMO also.
