hey guys what's up? I need as many people to chime in on this as possible. My friend has '00 cam. Z28 A4. He wants to use the ASA cam and GMPP CNC'd ls6 heads do u think 400hp is attainable with this set up? Sounds good to me but not sure

Why does he wants to waste his money on those heads and that cam? Smack him in the face and tell him to do some research for a better heads/cam combo.

Thank u can any body else give there 2cents please.

AFR 205 heads and F11/F13 cam will put him just a TAD bit over 400hp....hehehehe...

What are his goals?/ street, street/strip.
Stay emission legal or not?
In general A4 mods start like this:
LID/FTRA, headers (LT or MID), ported TB/LS6 intake, STALL (torq Conv, 3500 min), then you go in the head/cam, option. (of course tuning along the way).

H/C suggestion: TR224, 112 lsa with TEA/MTI 5.3 heads 2.02 int/1.57 exh

pred- can he hit 400rwhp with a 224 cam?
fbody- does he need to be smog legal? in what state?

P-Z nailed it on the head. that'd be a great setup without giving up street manners. just make sure he's stalled accordingly.

Wants good manners maybe pass the sniffer (borderline pass) we're in New Jersey. Def. 400hp or a little over.

You might wanna watch how strongly you say things. I would be more than happy to show you how well the GMPP heads flow directly out of the box if you'd like.....

Judging by your sig, it seems your "combo" isn't exactly tearing up the track. My car trapped a better et, and MPH with bone stock internals....on street tires

As for the original question, 400rwhp out of a A4 is quite a goal to shoot for. Especially when emissions are a concern. I would think that setup, however, would pass emissions(depending on how strict they are), and would go into the 11's with a converter and some good tires. Best of all, that cam would be EXTREMLY light on the valvetrain, and the heads are setup to flow directly in coorelation with that cam's lift. It honestly would be a very strong setup. I doubt it'll hit 400rwhp in a A4 though. Best of luck to him!

Combo,
400rwhp cam only is harder but H/C is easily attainable + bolt ons on a 10 bolt rear.

and be streetable, AND pass northern emissions? To me anyways, that's a tall order. I'm not by any means saying it can't be dont, but rarely do you see catted cars that are honestly street friendly slapping down 400rwhp through a A4 on the dyno....that's what i've seen anyways.

PREDATOR-Z

Are Northern emisions harder than Cali's?

We are talking Head /Cam,

I have Stealth II cam only + bolt ons (portmatched heads, no porting, LS6/918 valvetrain), .038 quench with Cometic .045

To make a story short 404rwhp/383rwtrq. In US I would be ~380+ (dynoed 299 bone stock)

Combo, combo, combo (matching + tweaking)

This looks like a pretty stout setup.

AFR 205's seem to be putting up great #'s on stock bottom ends consistantly.

Thats what I ordered, hopefully I'll have #'s in about a month

I am going with a bit bigger 228 230 cam though.

northern insection is very strict. If u have a non stock catback that is louder than stock by even a very little u fail
