IF all the ratings for the mods you have are correct(who knows), you should have an extra about 50hp more than stock. and that is figuring the stock diablo tune adds around 15hp.

i wanna dyno mine after a tune for sure just out of curiousity

Your mods are all supporting mods, who knows how much the Diablo actually adds. Did you use it to help fuel consumption? Are you just dumping more fuel at your car so it burns more for more power?

Really, throwing on a CAI is a supporting mod to get more air into your engine. The cat-back does nothing for horsepower until you are boosted and putting down serious numbers where the stock exhaust becomes a restriction.

You don't have any REAL modifications to your drivetrain to warrant HP gains. A CAI can add throttle response, the feeling of HP, but really it's only good for like 2 HP

I was just going by what each company claims to add for HP. I know most are probably alot less...they gotta get you to buy it somehow . i just figured the diablo stock tune was around 15 hp just like most other stock tunes for the LS4
