Straight Race Pipe=at least 8hp
ECU upgrade=10hp
UDP=no gains in HP but faster revving on engine
Catback exhaust=2 to 12 hp (if you have complete system, running 2.5 to 3 inches from engine back)
Basically you're running between 290 to 317 hp, but some of the figures I've quoted are from various applications to different cars or from different cars dynoed with some of the same mods.
So, some may argue and say more on somethings and less on others but like I said, "some of the figures quoted are from various applications to different cars dynoed with some of the same mods."
I just hope that they will read the fine print before they start to flame me.

The biggest problem of this post I have is that you can't just add HP figures for mods together and quote that as HP. It doesn't work that way. 14HP just for a popcharger? what are you, nuts? (no offense though, just rhetoric). You'll probably get about 15-20hp with a popcharger/intake coupled with a y-pipe.
I just want to dispell the myth that you can just add these figures together. It just doesn't work like that. Its more like a square root of the sum of sqares kind of thing (think pythagorean theorem) for flow improvements. An ECU upgrade can likely just be added normally as can NOS. All the other figures I agree to though and more or less agree with the rest of the post.
