HELP #'s with LT headers

Me and my brother (who is a LS1 owner) have been arguing about how much RWHP you can get from LT headers. My car is mostly a bolt-on car right now so how mush RWHP would I get from a par of jet-hots LT headers.
I am saying about 25-30 RWHP and he is saying like 15 RWHP.
How mush power do you get from LT headers I told him 15RWHP was more like shorties.

I'm betting somewhere between 15-20 RWHP (trying to be realistic on this one.)

I've seen dyno sheets ranging from 20 rwhp to 28 rwhp on a mostly stock car, but most are between 20 and 25 rwhp.

It all depends on your set up. If you already have a cam in then you could see as much as 35-40....most people get around 20-25.
