Lol dude, i think your along way from 200HP...

Im no expert but even I know that adding racing chips, dual CAI (prolly no difference than a single), and electronic turbos are all pretty much "gimmics".

Yes they do say that they add HP. But if you read about them they will say that they guarantee that they "CAN add UP TO"...I HIGHLY doubt you will be anywhere near 200hp. All the racing chip does is throw more fuel into the motor so your mpg goes down. Will that give you more hp? Theoretically yes. A dual CAI giving you more hp than a single? probably not, just get a bigger pipe and go with a single...And as far as the electric turbos go...A fan that pushes the air into the motor, again, in THEORY this SHOULD give your more hp. will it really? i doubt it...
