Default H/C or S/C

Hey guys I just recently bought a 2000 z28 m6 and she is all stock No it's time to start some mods and I need some help. As of right now it's my daily driver but I was wanting to see for my money what would be the best value to get me to 400+hp. I have around 1.5-2.3k to spend. Like I said she is all stock and I don't the best means to get there. I seemed to me that S/C or H/C would be the cheapest. You guys agree?

No, a wet NO2 kit would get you there and plus some for an easy 1200 if you go to SDPC.

But if NO2 is out of the question, I would have to say you can make 400 all motor for about the same price as a Procharger kit, or about 2000 more and you will do it with a Turbo kit. I wish I would have went turbo first.

My procharger P1SC1 installed complete with a Diablo tuner and gauges was over $7000. Better start saving.

You would need to add another $5K to your budget to do a full S/C setup. Start with a cam and intake and go from there.

Cheers,

Mark

all bolt ons and a big cam with stock heads should net 400 rear wheel.

You don't have enough in the budget for a s/c or t/c
