i have a 99 se 2.4L 4 banger and i was wondering what kind of hp increase i would be lookin at if i were to put in the stock "ram air" setup AND the GT exhaust AND a K&N / Green Filter....

i know the gain prolly wont be much.... but i just wanna know if it would be worth it or if i should hold out for a CAI and a RSM exhaust and the heads and TB and all those goodies...

Thanks

i'd say if ya can afford it, just get a good CAI and everything else ya listed. they say the RamAir systems arent really good. and they only add 5hp to the stock cars. 3400 SE is 170hp, RamAir 3400 GT is 175hp.

That gain is not from the RamAir (pretty much impossible to measure on a dyno because the car's not moving), it's from the better exhaust and different drive ratio.

yea. it the whole thing, but still, 5hp isnt really much for the ram air and exhuast. GM can do so much better and they know it.
