ten to fifteen horses maybe but those improvements combined with other upgrades are what performance is all about .. after this enhancement you will need to upgrade your exhaust with headers and duals .. then an ignition upgrade to MSD system .. then a cam swap to take advantage of the other mods .. you can sneak up on 300 horses pretty easy ..

then better breathing on the top should yield 20 or more horses .. 4 barrell will do wonders ..

sounds good if you started with a base 210 horse motor .may be closer to 240 but other things will open it up even more ..
