What would you consider a "noticeable" increase? The engine came stock with something like 221 horsepower, which is decent. I'm not looking to build a fire-breathing street racer, but I would like to add a little extra kick. I'd be happy if I could get to 250 - 260 horsepower.

Earlier you linked to a web site for the Magnaflow exhaust and I saw a link to a Steeda Fusion Power Pak. It claims that this will add 25 - 31 horsepower. Do you think that's accurate?
