Default How much power will these mods yeild?

I'm looking for about 330 N/A rwhp.....I'll be adding the following to a 2000 manual trans coupe: Vortex ram air with power duct, TPIS long tube headers, SLP loudmoth catback and power pullies. Will these mods get me anywhere close to 330 rwhp? If not, can anyone give me some advice on how to reach my goal ($ is an issue). I'll also be adding a 150 NX shot so hopefully that'll add @ 145 rwhp on top of this.

thanks!

40 -45 rwhp. IMO

What kind of c5 do you have. If you have 350 stock at the flywheel and figure a 20% drivetrain loss you would be at 280 + 45 = 325. Good Luck :)

I have a 2000 ls1 (345 hp) with manual transmission.....so that'd be about 15% driveline loss....putting stock rwhp at about 295.

Over the years there have been a lot of C5's dyno ~330 RWHP with the combination you are contemplating - some a little more.

You'll be fine.

You ight also wan't to think about adding the LS6 intake Mainfold. With that and the mods you listed you should easily be able to hit 330HP

You will most likely see gains around 10rwhp, some even get higher.
