Depends on labor costs, where you purchase the cams and valvesprings, and who did the tuning. You can pick up a used set of ITR cams for $300 and ITR valvesprings for $100.

The hp gain would be dependent on the tuning used. With a set of adjustable cam gears and a basic piggyback unit to adjust the vtec engagement point and even out the fuel curve, you would definitely notice a decent gain.

4 hp is not going to be noticeable on the butt dyno.
