Default Silencer and gotts mod difference?

So I recently I'd the gotts mod and the silencer delete and made sure to undo the positive battery cable to reset the computer I also cleaned the MAF but to be honest I don't feel that much of a difference and I certainly don't hear anything new like some people said I would from my motor due to the silencer delete any ideas? This weekend I am planning on taking my throttle body, egr, and IAC of to clean them any other suggestions? Or any reasons why I am not feeling a little difference?

You won't notice any difference. Maybe sound slightly, but that would be it.

Your engine was not gasping for air before you did the gotts/removed the silencer. You will see less than 5-8HP at 3500-4000RPM. You can't feel a less than 10HP difference.

It's a placebo affect.

Needless to say I have done the gotts mod to mine just cause I had the parts in the garage.

You arent going to get anything crazy with 10 hp added but if you decide to get exhaust and a tuner to take advantage of the improvements you may see some seat of your pants gains.
