Default Baught my first z28.

Hey guys i jsut finally purchased a 2000 m6 camaro z28, and have a list of a few mods and was wondering what kind of power increase i might see ?

-fidanza aluminum flywheel
-centerforce dual friciton clutch
-slp loud mouth cat back exhaust
-slp ram air intake kit with air box, K&N air filter, smooth bellows, and slp MAF sensor
-LS6 intake manifold
- cam (not sure which cam yet but im thinking a lunati voodoo cam that makes power from mid to high range.
-crane cams lifters, pushrods, adn gold race roller rockers, not sure on ratio either.
and the last is a dyno tune. Juat wondering what i might see if thats evan possible i know its a long list. thanx alot guys.

skip the maf, it makes it real hard for the tuner to tune. The stock lifters and rocker arms are fine. You will have to get new valvesprings and retainers at least for any cam swap. I dont see headers on your list but if you dont get them your going to be choking your car, especially with a cam. If you do get them I wouldnt get the loudmouth exhaust or it will sound like ***.

With a good cam and headers Ill guess maybe 375-385, add a ported tb and underdrive pulley and hit 400rwhp or more with a bigger cam.

yea i wasnt going to get headers because i just want the car to have a little bit more power to the point where i can hang with teh turbocharged hondas around my house or around 400 hp at the wheels. I dont want to get to crazy with the NA engine because after i am satisfied with the car i am going to save for a forged short block from W2W and twin turbo kit from gmr. So i dont want to dump a ton of money into the stock ls1 jsut enough to hol dme over for a few years,

if you want 400 to the wheels your probably going to want headers. My pacesetters cost me 390 shipped and werent that bad to put in at all. Plus with the x-pipe it sounds badass. Check the sig if you want to hear it. If you want the best setup your going to want headers.
