Default Opinions on this setup for a 5-speed

I was looking for a few opinions of what this setup can provide. This is a daily driver and going turbo at the moment can't be done. So for now, and by now I mean the next 2-3 years, I just want something with a little more power. Stock, the Tc really isn't that bad, but I was looking to get this setup for a nice little increase:

Injen CAI, MMW Header w/S-Pipe and the ARK DT-S Exhaust & Mid-Pipe.

Ive seen a few people on here that have this exact setup (but on an auto) and I was wondering how it is power wise. Like I said I just want a little more power; obviously this won't bust the 200hp mark. But with a 5speed wouldn't it be somewhere in the neighborhood of 180hp give or take? If so, that would be just fine.

I would estimate maybe 55-60hp at the crank? So maybe 35-40 at the wheels? So you'd be close to your 180hp at the wheels (stock 5spd dynos around 143hp or so, iirc).

I could be a ways off though. I'm just guestimating... I might be a little high... b/c I forget if the MMW numbers I've seen are crank or wheels. Hmm...

First off, I think a 140 at the wheels is for an auto, and 150 for the manual (someone correct me if I'm wrong) and 160 -165whp TOTAL? That would seem way off for those mods.

you won't need the midpipe though because the DT-s is a catback system
