They have done tests in car magazines with cat back exhausts for the rs-gs eclipse. It came out to about a couple of whp. Go here to see what others have gained.

Before you spend the cash on flow-masters, put in a K&N airfilter. You have to get airflow in before you can get it out. If you have the funds you can go for a K&N air intake system. Then put on the flowmasters. You can get Terminators from Holley, they supposedly give you even more HP then the flowmasters. Then change all your lubricants to synthetics. Redline products are probably the best available, but Royal Purple and Amsoil are nearly as good. Do some research on them, You'll probably find the worst on the market that you see commercials on just about every day. I read a study on a 1996 Dodge Dakota with a 318 motor that was first outfitted with a K&N airflow system. That modification added 7% more horsepower to the wheels. Then all the lubricants were changed to Redline and they got another 9% horsepower to the ground. All tests were done on a dyno.

the flow masters will help it a small amount,,i believe they give you 10 -15 horses,,and that is if used with headers,, and the headers also add a few horses,,other than that with out know what kind of a vehicle your working on,,i cant really help you any more ,,because different things help different engines,,even two identical engines,,run side by side,,will not run the same,,i hope this info will help you.
