[QUOTE="ANGREY, post: 15777571, member: 188865"] It's not an apples/apples comparison. There's a string on another forum where a guy did full on apples/apples, as in, mod component, tune, mod component, tune. What we find is what you'd expect. Most (an overwhelming majority) of the power gains are from the cat delete and the tune. Headers help a little and the CAI is largely snake oil. Things like long tubes will yield bigger benefits under forced induction, but N/A, the factory shorties aren't all that bad or restrictive for the HP levels and flow rates at the n/a levels involved here. Bottom line for anyone reading this, if you're gonna do headers or resonator deletes, the impact is going to be small to negligible. You're doing it more for the sound. I have 2" primaries and Lund actually told me he cans the same tune for 2" vs. 1-7/8" primaries because it's negligible at n/a levels. If you want to wring out the most power for $ spent, simply throw the cats in the dumpster and get a custom tune (or even better an E-85 tune, which will bump about 20-30hp more). If you don't insist on having the n-guage, you can probably get a cat delete and a resonator delete done (tastefully) for less than $500 and the tune will cost you around $400 (if you insist on having a shop install it for you). If you want the n-gauge + tune, and you can still find some specials being offered you can get it for around $800. [/QUOTE]
