it depends on if you have them dyno tuned, expect 0 hp if you dont get it tuned.

edit: this applies to cam gears

you could get cams w/ crazy lobes and expect alot more top end, but your h23 valvetrain isn't really going to like pushin the high r's.

Saw 7/5 gain up top running open header w/ 11.7:1 AF. Stock box/filter. It was a scrub run w/ a really shitty fuel curve but peak gain was actually positive. Hope that helps, pretty sure it doesn't though

Edit: stage 1 low and hi cam
