Along this line of inquiry, what (+/- HP) are consensus values for:

Kanji character windshield banners (large!):
"Maxwell House" sized exhaust tip (3 pound can):
"Area rule" side skirts:
Pseudo pin-drive wheels:
Multi-element, carbon fiber rear wing:
Ditto, with T3036 Alu end plates:
"Clear corners" (with green bulbs):
Ditto, with clear Euro side-marker lights (green bulbs):

And the number one horsepower additive,
Blue LED washer squirters:
