Maybe 20-25 hp with both.

Get tuned for those and then about 75..

The tunes, no matter who ya go with, would be the best investment you can make.. makes it totally different truck..

Oh, and also safer for your engine as far as adding an intake kit goes.

Realistically, you might see 15 RWHP with intake & exhaust, MAYBE. With a tune, the max you will see with all 3 mods is 40-50 at the wheels. Adding headers, cats, efans, and pulleys might net you closer to 75 RWHP gains. Call Troyer and talk to him about it...i have. He will give you the accurate information (which i just stated )

As Thumper is alluding to, i recommend going with a tune along with your exhaust and intake mods.

I agree, it does depend on which specific mods.

But people with the 3.5" AF1, Magnaflow Catback, and Troyer premium fuel performance tunes are seeing 50rwhp gains on the dyno. Thats about the best combo performance wise for those 3 mods.

the rousch air intake is the exact same as the airaid kit but with a different name on it and a higher price.

accoding to k&N FIPK kit you should get around 10 horse with the air intake, and an exhaust usually around 10hp as well.

The Edge Evolution accoding to a magazine dyno and write up i read today gives 50.8hp so get all 3

Yeah, I was basing my numbers on what I've read and been told for my particular mods, that I should, best guess, be in the 205-210 RWHP range.

It sure as hell feels like I added a good 70 hp or so..

E-fans, lw pulleys, headers.. I want to do all of those eventually.. Hard to justify right now with everything ya need to live getting more expensive every day tho.

I probably should find a good shop with a dyno around here and find out for sure, if only to have a baseline..

Maybe a tb spacer and Tornado device will get me up around 220 and 25 mpg! Yeahhhhh baby...
