What is the stock psi?
What psi are you running?
Look it up.
The cooler charge air MAY give you a boost in power, by 2-3 hp.The cat-back helps the engine breathe better, but it's not GIVING you HP. The BOV does not improve HP, just increases turbo life.Running rich actually robs you of power. While it is great for a safety margin in case you spike in boost too much (it CAN happen), it takes away from combustion.
8 psi from a T25 and 8 psi from a GT35 is still 8 psi. The only difference is power band, because of the affected spool time.
I estimate 180ish to the wheels. Maybe 190.
Get larger injectors, bump boost to 10, get a tune, and have fun. 10 psi is good enough to still be reliable, while giving you just enough to have fun.
