Default Give me your Input!!!!!

ok i have a 98 z(a4), It under ext warranty right now so i had to get rid of the TNT dry kit so im looking for some input on my plans. Right now the car has a MTI lid, and a Loud mouth on it, everthing else is stock.My question to you guys is will I be happy with an ls6 intake, asp pulleys,and slp LT. After warranty is up the plan are for a big cam and converter. Is this a right start for the future??

It sounds like you are heading in the right direction. A pulley, LT's, and a converter is a great start. I'm not sure that a LS6 intake will be that beneficial without a heads/cam package. I could be mistaken there. You could put that $400 towards a ST3500.

You may want to add gears to your list (3:73) would be a good choice.

I agree with Dan, I'd hold off on the LS6 intake until you do your heads and cam. On an A4 car a converter is the way to go...big bang for the buck mod there.
