im sure it says 28rwhp with tune. ive seen a few things that have said that. but i doubt it. you can get a $25 CAI off ebay. and a TB wont make that much of a difference . and i the tb spacer is useless

the more air and the more fuel = higher hp and torque numbers

its only a 65mm throttle body. the spacer can hurt gas mileage. and the cai its practically the same as every other one out there. dont waste your money on the kit. you would save money if you bought each part seperate.

You got a lot of other mods or plan on modding it in the future the TB will help, but if you are stock your not gonna see much. The spacer is pointless. I would say grab a 25 dollar CAI off Ebay and buy the TB separate if you plan on getting some big numbers in the car. Your looking about maybe 7-13 if your lucky __________________ Scion Tc-strup racing header, CAI, Ground Kit, NOS 100shot, Custom suspension, Doc.

you will never see 28 out of that unless your running a high psi forced induction system.
