+50rwhp if you're lucky (may need a tune to get the best of those mods).

Cheers,

If you're only gaining 25-30rwhp with an intake, cat-back and LT headers with tuning, something is seriously wrong! LG pro LT's alone with tuning should net +35-40rwhp. Add a cat-back and intake into the mix and you should get close to 50rwhp.

Here's an LGM Pro LT dyno chart on an 01 LS1 showing the gains I'm talking about:

LG's are the best headers available IMHO, but come on. Most guys get ~18-22rwhp and are very happy with that result. I second ~30-35rwhp for everything.
