Default worth it or quit being a cheap a$$

I,ve got a 02 ws6 with a innercooled vortech supercharger with about 8 lbs boost,stock bottom end,dart heads fast intake and throttle body. I don,t know what size cam I have but I believe it,s an ls6 cam would it be worth it to buy some slp 1.8s from a friend for $300 or should i just break down and buy epp cam. i dynoed 488 rwhp with 520 rwt with I believe a bad trans. after the dyno i ran a 11.9 then the trans was definately bad changed it with a 3400 stall and ran 11.2/ 123 mph. also with a 9in 350gear rearend. i just want to see 10anything. any help would be great, thanks

Some higher gears would probably give you the bigest bang for your buck or so suspension if you haven't already
to get you in the tens

Agreed. You can go to a 4.10 gear and still not be at the top of 3rd thru the traps. You have enough MPH for a high 10 now.

I just put qa1s on and bought some bogarts so that ought to shave a little weight. I think maybe the next step would be gears. I really only drive the car to cruise nights, shows and the strip once in a while anyway. also the tires are mt dr 275/50/15 do you think with the 410 gears 275/60/15 would be better? THANKS

Definetly need to 60 better before you worry about more power. What are you A4 or M6? A better stall if you are a A4 is a must.
