Quite correct, in the real world you can't just add up the "box" estimates for adding HP to get an end number. HP is gained by all the factors together, not separately.
With that said, I think we can all let that issue go. I don't want to see this thread fall apart as has been happening more often lately.

na i kept up with a couple actually ima start recording it and put it on you tube or something yea thats wut i got to do it looks ugly with that lil exhaust lol no that aint it thats how i want it to come out in time lol

I wasn't aware it was 800 dollars for a H and a catback, but it's your money, spend it as you wish.
oh yea i have the pics there on my profile and yea i just thought it was around there because i looked it up and it says that the CAI can add up to 15 rear wheel horse power and same thing for the headers 8-15 hp, i did feel a big difference when i put those mods tho lol but yea ima be having youtube videos soon i love it how my lil V6 keeps up with a V8 lol ill keep u all posted with them vids ill put the link on here or something

Did you race a 94-98 GT or a 99-04 GT? If a 94-98 GT then their may be a chance, they were slow stock but the V6's were slower. Some of the split-ports with full bolt-ons can take the 94-98 GT's but generally they take the driver. A full bolt-on 99-04 V6 is no where near a stock 99-04 GT auto or manual. lol
I think the fastest time I have seen out of a bolt-on V6(which includes lightweight drive-train, suspension, all engine parts and slightly stripped) is a 14.6-14.7 and he was an incredibly good driver. What everyone is saying is that you took the drivers of the GT's not the GT itself.
