3200 stall, shift kit, gears, lid and HSW wet plate kit and u wont be able to wipe the grin off your face when you get it all together. The car will be totally streetable and u could drive it anywhere.

first thing i would do is a stall then nitrous. the stall will really wake the car up and nitrous is just fun and with nitrous you can disconect it when your not using it and its like it was never there

Yank 3600 Stall, Bilstein shocks, Eibach springs, and some M/T street radials. That will wake that beast right up. If theres money left over, Some lower control arms to decrease wheel hop.

1. Lid
2. LS6 Intake
3. Stall
4. Tune (lifetime)
5. Smaller cam (220s) and supporting mods
6. Maybe some cheap milled 243 heads if you are still flush with cash.
See how money much you have left after #4 and go from there. A little nitrous might be more up your alley than a H/C package.

Except for the $50 cost every time you need to refill the bottle.
Get a good name brand converter. I would look at a 3400-3600 for your setup. This is one of the best mods you can do on an A4, hands down. You will see the best bang for the buck out of this mod. The first time you drive the car after it's installed, you will have a smile from ear to ear.
Good Luck!!!
