Default Bolt On Mods Question

Whats the max horsepower i can get with just bolt ons on my 2002 Z28 it has a 80 Series Flowmaster and cutout only. I was thinking on putting a Lid, FTRA,Throttle body, and Mass Air Senser maybe headers and SLP loudmouth. I do not want to rip the motor apart for internal mods it only has 9600 miles or so. <img border="0" alt="[shoot]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_guns.gif" /> (No NOS)

2002 Sunset Orange Z28 M6 80 series Flowmaster and a cutout.

I would say with full bolt-ons, it is possible to get 360-365.

The Lid, TB, FTRA, and headers are all great mods. I'm personally not an advocate of aftermarket MAFs. Buy a pulley instead!

If I were you I would stay away from the LM if you're going to have headers w/ orp. It is the raspiest exhaust known to man when running no cats! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> Go with the Hooker or Dual/dual.

Happy Moding! <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

get QTP's or thunder headers and GMMG exhaust. I think that should sound pretty good <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

I have a kid who has one of my TB's dynoing a bolt on 370rwhp(M6), so that's well over 425hp at the flywheel with just bolt ons. He does every dam thing you can bolt on to the car.
