2017 Camaro SS what can I expect horsepower gains?

I have a 2017 Camaro SS with the automatic. I have a CAI with long tube headers with catt delete and a MBRP race exhaust system. I just purchased the Katech 103mm throttle body and the MSD Atomic Air force manifold. In your experence how much horsepower can one expect to have at the wheels with this combo.
Thanks

are you on 93 or e85?

460 or so on 93

480 or so on e85

Those would be SAE on a dynojet..... throw in a couple of horsepower for STD numbers, and take a few away from mustang dyno numbers

I am on 93 octane right now. Yes it will be tuned. After this is all done I will be installing a cam and heads that is why I went with a 103mm throttle body.
Thanks for all your input

Most mods, a tune is recommended or highly recommended

And then some mods 100% require a tune. A bigger throttle body requires a new tune, because it needs to be scaled.

i like it. fitment is nice. pita to get the rotofab on it. no gains on a bolt on car, but like yourself, I plan on doing a max effort n/a SBE build... hopefully over this winter, in which it should shine like a diamond in a goats ass
