Default 350 Rwhp

Ok i know plenty of you guys are probably sitting at or close to this number as we speak. What kind of bolt ons do you all have on your cars? Will long tube headers, ORY, catback w/ cutout, MTI Lid, and Holley powershot filter be enough?

My daily driver (2001 Trans Am) has lid, Borla, and ZO6 cam making 360rwhp with the Borla closed. Very quiet and smooth car, I love it.

With all the normal bolt-ons and LS6 intake you should hit 350rwhp, and tuning would really help you hit that.

Peace,
Craig.

in a 2000 car? you might get close... 330-340? but to hit 350 you will really need a good tune, ported TB, LS6 intake, and you still may need a cam to pass 350rwhp...

with ALL the bolt ons and a good tune id guess you'd see 340rwhp ... jmo.

M6HuggerSS pretty much said the way I would have. I didn't get 350 with Kook's LT and ORY, Lid and tune. Now I got mods in sig I should be at 400 RWHP now. I say get LS6 intake,LT,True Duals,Pulley and a Tune you should be there.

In addition to my sig, I had upgraded to 28.8# injectors, LS6 Intake, Janzter ported TB, FTRA> a bunch of other stuff. In my A4 with all this stuff, I only hit the numbers in my sig. Converter was unlocked and cutout open through Borla's when I dyno'd, but, Yank converters are said to be efficient enough to hardly lose maybe 10-12 RWHP. So, all this said, don't go expect 350 RWHP when you dyno. It's a huge disappointment when you have high expectations and you dyno with a lot less than you expect.

In a M6, you'd make 350 pretty easily, but, not an A4. You'll see see the difference at the track is your best friend (by your ET's) ... good stall converter and numbers don't matter much. I hope you do well with your setup. Good luck.

Was the z06 cam an even swap, or did you have to get the longer push rods?

Through an M6 you will not need a cam, heads, or F/I to hit 350.

dynoed 332/343 corrected with lid, filter, and MAF. Haven't dynoed since. I think with a full exhaust plus lid and filter you should hit 350

No, I used MTI's stock length 7.40 chrom-moly hardened pushrods. I had some dual valve springs on a set of stock heads laying around and I reused them. I think they were Comp 918's and titanium retainers.

I'm not real sure what you can get away with using just a little 'ol ZO6 cam, but I was taking no chances.

Peace,
Craig.

I'm sure with a ZO6 cam and a few bolt ons you'll be at 350 rwhp no problem.
