Just adding the numbers up won't work, that would be like going to the parts
store and grabbing on of each chemical that states it will increase you gas
mileage by 10%, think about it if you to add it up you would get 60+ miles
per gallon and if you kept putting them in you could sell a your extra gas.

You will probably get 158 to 165 at the wheels, maybe less. It boils down to
how the new components will reactive to one another and what will offset
gains by one. To get the elusive 195-200hp will need to change the fuel
management system, like Scott and Mike. Then and Only then will you be able
to eek out all the performance from you engine.

IMHO
