Default Where to go next...

I'm trying to decide what I want to do next... I'm thinking about some heads (really not sure which ones still researching) and a fast intake. The car was purchased with most of these done already (minus the rear) suggestions or comments? I never had the car dynoed so I don't what numbers she puts down atm

Jet-Hot Long Tube Headers Coated and Jet-Hot Off Road Y-pipe Coated, Cutout, Moser 12 bolt 3.73 gears, 02 LS6 Z06 cam

If you are happy with that cam, I'd do a set of heads.

If you don't mind swapping that cam out, I'd get a larger cam so you can take advantage of some new better flowing heads.

I'd guess somewhere around 350RWHP now with the A4. If you're going to install heads, I would go with a better camshaft too. Of course, you'll want to match it to your converter.

I was thinking about a better cam to go with the heads because I wasn't sure if the current cam would be up to the task. I know there are tons and tons of threads about cams and I still don't know which one to get. It took me a few months to finally decide on rims probably longer to decide on a cam and head combo heh

Quoted for emphasis. I'd just find a nice set of heads unless down the road you think you'll want some more power. If that is the case, put a bigger cam in the car.
