intakes have nothing to do with the SES lights people have been getting. The HFC are the only mod that might trip the SES, and a simple reset of your A/F ratio values that your car learned while being stock will eliminate any future problems with the light being tripped. Your electronics just need to get used to the increased flow and different A/F ratio values.

Just making sure. 
HFCs are good and most people don't get a light until they add other components and even some of those people don't get the light. Once a ECU management system comes out (if one ever does) then the A/F ratio problem can be fixed unless they do what you did. I just wish the Cobb AP would come out but that won't be for another couple years (AP is not worth getting, IMO, unless you can create custom maps which won't be available for a couple years).

I don't think the parts are on the market to add 50 CHP with bolt ons. It may be possible in the future, but plan on spending $4000 on parts, and you'd need a tune.
Unless you know where to get a Tornado... they add 40 hp and they are only $29.99.

^^ I try 
and yes, 375 at the crank is possible with bolt-ons. I'm hoping to hit that mark in a week or so. I jumped to 361 at the crank with cat-back, HFC, and headers. I added JWT pop-chargers, and UR pulley but don't know my dyno numbers yet from these 2 mods. With a tune I should be over the 375 mark easily, at the crank that is

It really depends on the dyno used, and conditions. My base dyno with no mods on my 5AT was right at 264, which fits perfectly inline with the 18-20% loss in hp from the drivetrain. After adding HFC, Cat-back, and headers I was at 289, which, again fits perfectly with the average loss in HP from the drive train. With intake and pulley I hope to break 300whp( havn't dynoed yet with these mods on), and once my baby is tuned at Technosquare I hope the number takes a big jump
