how much HP will I get after I tune?

I already know my car is hella fast now even without tuning.
I have cam gears that are still set at zero, and a cartech 2005 on the way.

My mods:
97 GS-R
8lb JRSC
JR boost timing contoler
JR Fuel pump
Kamikaze 2.25 header
APEXi N1 Exhaust
Comptech Intake
Jet ECU
Type R flywheel
JDM hondaparts cam gears
AEM fuel Rail (got it for the port so I can use my Fuel Press. Guage)
Cartech 2005 FMU

Any Idea with Dyno Tuning what I should be making?

cam gears won't actually get you even decent gains. maybe 1 to 2hp gain at the most. what they are good for is manipulating the horsepower and torque curves for more usable power.
There is no way to say how much extra horsepower your car will produce from getting it dyno tuned. I think it is fair to say that you will pick up at least a few horsepower but more importantly you will know you car is running the proper air/fuel ratio and that the setup is running to it's maximum potential. Every car is different and two GsR's with the exact same setup will more than likely not produce the exact same numbers no matter what you do. Hope this helps.

ACRTUALLY they dont MAKEpower themselves but they will make your engine work with your mods, i bet you gain 15-25whp...ive seen as much as 55whp on a turbo lude..have fun
