    IV R32 power increase with chip and intake?

    Hi, I checked from APR site that chip in IV R32 would increase power to 260hp. Then they sell carbonio intake. How do you estimate total power increase with these two? Over 260hp? Or is the 260hp from chip alone even possible? Any experiences from R32 drivers in this forum?
