assuming you have a 9.8 hotside yes you'll see gains from swapping to a 10.5 and even more gains with an aftermarket o2 housing

you'll give up a tad bit of spool with the larger hotside but the combo should net you 15~ whp and similar if not more torque

that is assuming you'll be getting a retune of course

Agreed. Freddie did this and he gained 20hp I beleive but he did a 3" 02 housing recirc so 15hp on a std 02 housing sounds about right.
