Default Just picked this thing up, where do you think it's at?

I just bought this car, and I'm trying to figure a ballpark number of where it's at, HP and 1/4 wise (I'm broke and can't afford dyno time atm)

'02 SS A4 with the Blackwing intake and all the SLP goodies.

AFR 205 heads
MS3 cam
various valvetrain goodies
pacesetter LT's, huge-*** catless y-pipe with high-flow aftermarket cat, into big-*** single-exit exhaust
UD pulley
A/C deleted
4.10 rear
yank ss4000 stall
subframe connectors, polyurethane mounts
tuned

It's sitting on Nitto 555's (275) in the rear.

What kind of power do you guys think it's making? Guestimates on times?

I'm thinking I want to redo the exhaust with an x-pipe into straight-through mufflers with turn-outs, replace LS6 manifold and stock TB with FAST 90 IM & TB, and a retune. Think it's worth it? How much do you think I'll pick up?


Thanks for any help... I don't want to blow 100 bucks just to get a baseline, when I could get it dyno'd later while retuning and kill two birds with one stone. I'd just like to know where I'm at.

Thanks for the reply, man... Where do you think I'd be at with non-ported FAST 92/92, SLP 85mm MAF, and 3" X pipe with straight-through mufflers and turn downs dumped before rear axle?

thanks, y'all. I have an updated mod list for ya. Trying to figure out how high it's safe to turn this thing.

The car's at Gary's Transmission, getting the 4L60E bulletproofed.

Have a few more details on my car, though.

2002 Camaro SS 35th Anniversary, 54,000 miles, Navy Blue Metallic with T-Tops

AFR 205 heads
Comp Cams MS3 Cam
Yank 4000 Stall
LS6 oil pump
Comp Cams R roller lifters
double roller timing chain
Katech belt tensioner
4.10 Richmond gears
subframe connectors
BMR driveshaft loop
Pacesetter longtube headers
polyurethane transmission and motor mounts
SLP lid
SLP cold air intake
SLP front strut tower brace
drilled and slotted brake rotors
factory C5 Corvette wheels
clear corners
projector halo headlights
Autometer tach with shift light
AC, heat, EGR, and AIR systems deleted
BMR HVAC blockoff plate
billet grill
Nitto NT555R tires


I just ordered an SJM line lock, MBA shifter adaptor, Hurst T shift **** with roll control button, and a C4 Corvette shift boot that will be going on as soon as I get them.
As soon as I get the car back, it's getting a 3in X-pipe system with bullet-style mufflers, dumped before the axle. It'll also be getting an SLP 85mm MAF, 100mm stainless lid, smooth bellows, and some Racetronix 42lb injectors as soon as they get here.

The only things I still need are a fuel pump, intake manifold, and throttle body. (going with a FAST setup when I can find one)
