Just curious if anyone has all those parts on their auto. On an individual basis, no, they don't add much, but together it seems a nice gain.

If you do have them all, have you done a before and after dyno?

Seems all those combined would give you about 25hp to the wheels. I'd think you would notice that. Plus coupled with a Cobb ap and mm tune with higher revs, you might be bordering on "quick."

I realize it's a chunk of coin, but I plan on having this thing a while so I'd be interested to see what all these parts together bring to the table and the impressions of their owners.

All of them will maybe yield 10-15hp tops, with a tune.

iirc, Jedi54 ran primarily RB w/the exception of his midpipe n' intake w/the AP. You can check out his dyno threads for his results.

I have everything listed minus the headers. I bought them over a period of a couple years though so I didn't really notice any power difference.

Buy it for the sound first(sounds incredible), and just don't get your hopes up on any big power. (mine is MT btw)

yea i would say 5whp from each mod is high hopes so the three combined exhaust wise and intake would be a 20whp gain, with cobb i would say its feasible. Im pretty close to RB and im probably getting the catback and intake.. got the mazsport midpipe atm and stock headers
