Just tech wise on my new '07 GT... I installed a BBK 62mm throttle body, BBK Coldair and a Pypes Cat-Back exhaust. The "specs" say that each increases HP by 15 or so.... since my stock 'stang is 300hp, what would the combines HP be? Should I get a new "Tune"? It would be nice if it were +45hp... Just looking for rough opinions =)

* Not "tuned"

My 2007 Mustang GT.

stock you should have anywhere between 250 and 265rwhp... the throttle body got me decent gains, but i have a cam... so you probably got like 1 or 2 if anything at all with that, the exhaust doesnt give any gains if its cat back, and the intake also wont give you good gains unless you get a tune..

so...rough guess, id say a high of 267whp but most likely around 255?

To begin with, the AVERAGE GT puts down about 260-265 RWHP.

Without any other internal mods or FI, the throttle body might be worth 1 or 2 RWHP MAYBE.

The untuned CAI nets you about 5-8 RWHP MAYBE.

The axlebacks provide no gain, just noise.

With a little luck, you're turning 265-275 RWHP. Add a tune to that CAI and you're probably looking at an additional 12-20 or more RWHP. The tune would also improve your throttle lag and response.
