Not a lot if you aren' t modifying anything else. Maybe 10-15 hp

If you are running a stock exhaust that is why I said 15 hp. It's only a down pipe not headers. Even the K&N isn't going to give you much because your throttle body is same size. 15 hp is a lot considering you are using stock parts. You can only get so much from these additions due to components and not modifying other things. The smaller pulley may make the supercharger do more but if you don't change injectors as well as larger throttle body then it don't expect a hundred or even 50 hp boost.

I was ordering ss stainless steel headers and 400 cell cat downpipe separately. And what did you mean by a larger throttle body, and injectors?
