As a rule of thumb.

4 cylinder cars gain 5-6 whp per sticker, unless over 6" wide, then the windshield banner types gain 9 whp.

4 cylinder TURBO cars gain 12 whp per, and 15 per for banners.

6 cylinder and 8 cylinder cars gain 17 whp per, and 21 per for banners (oddly enough, these cars are least found with stickers on them....the 4 banger crowd usually has to have a lot of stickerzzzz to make up for the lack of displacement).

10 and 12 cylinder cars like the Vipers and Ferraris actually receive another engine's worth of power simply by adding the "dynamic duo," the front/rear banner combo....always a classic.
