Say the engine is running at stock specs. (V6)... Got Coated V6 headers, UDP, MSD, K&N Intake, Custom Cat-Back 2.5", and a Magnaflow Cat... What would I be looking at at the crank and at the wheels?

I'd say a butt-dyno of 20

maybe ~10ish but I'm not familar to how restrictive a stock exhaust system is on these.  The stock air intake doesn't appear to be that restrictive so IMO a "CAI" wouldn't get alot of ponies as most places advertise.

Safe bet is take the advertisers HP gains, divide that by 3 to get a more realistic gain lol

As far as I knew the headers alone give about 20 at the wheels, udp gives about 5, exhaust gives about 5 or 10... MSD doesn't help power but it helps rpms... I was thinking along the lines of 30+ at the wheels. I'm gonna get it dyno'd anyways. As of now, it has a poor tune, about 10K old... and then the new dyno will be w/ all the upgrades, a big tune, and the 120K tune.

The biggest restriction: that damn quality forsaken A604.

If there was an automatic swapout that worked, and just bolted up with little to no modification work, you would notice a nice reclamation of horsepower. The A604 basically nerfs the hp and your Engine Horsepower is far higher than your Wheel Horsepower.

sorry man but that is some really really hopefull thinking

i'd say exhaust (headers, dp, catback) will get you 5-15 at the wheels

aftermarket ignition does nothing to a NA engine, maybe if your runnin nitrous/turbo/S-C you may see some small gains but stock is just as good as aftermarket

True dat... Well like I said, I'm gonna get it dynoed before and after the stuff goes on. Plus this coming summer a 3.0 as going in and I was thinking about having DMS do the 5-speed swap but I'll prolly just bulletproof the a604.

Dude you have no idea. The rear manifold alone looks like a big 'ol catalytic converter.
