that sounds a bit optimistic. 25rwhp is a lot. What kind of car do you have? Some cars respond really well to mods like that, but I've heard of few that get 25whp from lt's.

It's an LS2 V8. A few friends with GTO's have already done the header conversion and their dyno results generally went from 346 stock to 370. A tune will help tap into that.

oh yeah, with an LS2 I could see that. For some reason I keep thinking you drive a 4banger, I dunno why.
