12 hp gain at the wheels. realise that 5 of that is UDP, which means 7 hp from cat back, tb/plenum, tune. that's a lot of lettuce for 7 hp.

I think after market headers with sports cats would up the number. I've steered clear of those because of cost and drone.

Also my gain is 20/13 hp. If we believe we lose 15% power from crank to wheels.

Stock was 264 hp at the crank = 224 hp at the wheels.
Moded is 284 hp at the crank = 241 hp at the wheels.

Don't forget the car does have 55,000 miles on it to. I don't it would still be putting out 264 hp on 93% humidity day.

The car is noticably faster and sounds great. I don't regret doing the mods, most I did myself and had fun doing them. But I am thinking of getting new headers now !! lol
