It depends, do your Eurocharged tune last on a dyno to make the most of your supporting mods (and get hp and torque figures) Also, I wouldn't pull the primary cats- just secondary.

That's about what I have on my car. A 40 to 60 hp gain is a reasonable expectation. Mine's running at about 400 to 425 hp. Deleting the resonator will not add hp it will only add noise to an exhaust that will be more than loud enough with the Kleeman long tube headers and the primary cat delete -- note: to install the Kleeman long tube headers you have to delete the primary cat's. The only mod's I have that you have not suggested are a bored out throttle body and throttle neck, a forged AMS crank pulley and an evosport underdrive pulley set -- the remaining mods simply improve handling and add to cosmetic or aesthic appeal -- see signature.
