I have a 00 trans am m6 car. I've done 4.10 gears with moser axles and ta cover. Also I have done slp lid, bbk headers, i ported the tb, ported the MAF ends, frost tune, free ram air mod, tb bypass, and MSD wires. What should I run and maybe what kind of power should I be making? Also any other good inexpressive mods I'm missing?

I would say you should run 8.0s-8.20s.. weight reduction is your friend..

About that if I had to guess. What did it run stock?

I haven't run it stock, I've only had it two months. I forgot to mention it has 160k on it :(

I wouldn't worry about that too much but that's just me and I'm usually wrong. It'll do good, don't worry. Good luck!

Seems like you've got pretty similar mods to mine but mines an A4. Mine ran an 8.2x@84 mph in 95 degree weather and tapping the limiter on a slippy 2-3 shift. So depending on how good you can drive it without breaking it, you should be low 8's all day long. With a possible 7.9 on a well prepped track with a perfect DA. Now that my tranny's fixed, I hope to see 7's. On street tires :) cut a 1.9 60' on 275 nitto streets when I ran that time.
