Default horsepower gain?

-05 ep3

i'm thinking of buying a dc header with a TI-C Greddy catback exhaust.
How much horsepower should i get off both?

You probably won't get much, and if you due the sound will be more noticable. Japanese motors don't produce enough exhaust to become a problem unless u have other mods. Expect maybe a 5-10 hp jump if that.

add a cold-air intake to it and you will get some decent gains
make sure the dc header is a raceheader

You will gain enough to beat a stock ep3.

with the DCRH you wont have a cat anymore. with the shorty you will still use the cat, or get a test pipe.
