Okay to make this easier to read I broke it down.
a4 stock 323 gears- A4 cars will dyno lower than M6 cars. (who cares)
slp lm 1- 5hp over stock catback
slp air box lid- 5hp
slp CIA w/ smooth bellow- 5hp
tb bypass- 1-2hp
ls6 intake / pp tb from potz- 10hp on stock internals (will help more later on)
Stock A4 cars usually throw down around 290 to the wheels in my experience. So right now you are probably right at the 300 mark. Add an ls6 intake and a ported tb and I would say your at about 315rwhp. The best mod you can do right now is long tubes with an off road y pipe. Dont worry about the numbers, especially with an auto. Auto cars usually own the track.
Now if you want 400 at the flywheel. You need to make about 334 to the wheels. With a 20% loss through the auto that would be 400 at the flywheel. (334*1.20=400) I think a good set of long tubes would put you there on the average reading dyno jet.

Good lord. Is the OP some sort of puzzle, descramble word search or something? lol
Anyhow, far more then likely you're not at 400 flywheel hp with the ls6 intake. Addition of some 1 3/4" long tube headers, 3" y-pipe with that ls6 intake, then you're walking in the 400 flywheel hp neighborhood.
