-patriote performance ls6 stageII heads and cam package with my choice of comp cams camshaft hadend push rods and rool master timing set
-hooker LT,s and y pipe with cut out and gmmg and slp loudmouth system

Mr Spell Checker says ...

1. "list off parts" is actually > "list of parts"

2. "patriote" is actually > "Patriot"

3. "hadend" is actually > "hardened"

4. "rool master" is actually > "Rollmaster"

5. "hipertech" is actually > "Hypertech"

6. "programer" is actually > "programmer"

7. "pully" is actually > "pulley"

8. "suspention" is actually > "suspension"

You flunk English 101. Now that we have corrected your spelling, I would consider a TR220 since you have an A4. It will make power up to about 6,400 rpm with your proposed combo.

Good luck,

P.S. Hey, I'm just joking around with you. We have lots of folks in here that English is actually a second language. My Bad ....

Speed Inc's 224/224 .581/.581 112 LSA Makes up to 400 RWHP on stock heads, let alone your brilliant set. It makes power through 6600 RPM as well.

One question, how are you going to have GMMG and loudmouth? I thought we could only have one cat back....

Oh BTW, you probably will not make 450 HP...

u will need full tuning with all that stuff, a hypertech will be useless... if u want a smooth idle, get the TR220 on a 114... if u don't mind the lope, get a TR224 on a 112...

BTW it's 3:42 gears.
I have MTI SS1 220/220 115lsa and similar mods than the ones you stated and I got 391rhp/378Tq. I will brake 400rhp when I upgrade my tuning (I hope).
You will need a bigger cam for 450rhp. with at least 230+ duration I think.
INDIAN you are funny LOL
