You probably have about 155hp at the wheels, 190hp at the crank.

192, maybe. The flowmaster may actually make him about that much.

Please, I beg you, do not waste your money on a tornado "air management system"!

They are totally useless.

I dynoed my 97 5spd and got 165hp, 183ft/lb. All I have is a generic cone filter.

At the wheel= HP measured where the wheel meets the ground
At the crank= HP measured at the crank shaft
The reason the power output at the crank is greater than at the wheel is because there is a loss of power in the drive train.

Do you know what a crank shaft is?
