Is it realistic to get 25-30 Horsepower from the following setup for a 07 TL-S?

CAI + Pro-Cat + Thermoblock Spacer = 25-30HP? or :thumbsdow

ehhh... maybe... pro-cats... no no no... PRE-cats are what you want

CAI, P2R TB , UR Pulley, ATLP Jpipe, Exhaust & HFC + PreCats = about 50whp for me =)

stillhere, why? hp is hp, it just depends how it gets put down. Total hp wouldn't be as high, but the difference should be the same, no?

well automatic's do not put the power down to the floor because there is a much higher drivetrain loss thru the torque converter

manual looses way less than auto's

I guess the ones that still have the material inside. Maybe through trial and error they came out with different batches
