You will surely get more HP if you add Test Pipes and Plenum Spacer...but I would stay away from lightweight Pulleys now that you are FI

I think plenum spacer is worthless, you will gain around 20-30HP by test pipes alone, and you will lean out a bit and will gain like 1-1.5 PSI

+1
And if you do a pulley, I would suggest a harmonic dampner like the ATI or Fluidyne.

Are you by any chance AT?

When my tune was done it got me about those numbers before test pipes - after test pipes it put me up by about 25tq and 30hp.

Highly recommend test pipes!

With a super conservative tune and and the same boost.

Just a thought
