I am currently trying to build a strong street car as a daily driver. Don't know much but here are my ideas. I have a lq4 6.0 stock as of now. I was going with ls6 intake, 243 heads, headers, y-pipe, borla exhaust, cam, under drive pulley. want to make a 408 or turbo but I'm on a budget. unless I can find a few parts for 408 rotating assembly laying around. Want to shoot for 550 to 650hp if not more. Thanks in advance. the car is a 02 TA

What year 6.0? To make 600rwhp+ with a turbo on a near stock shortblock isn't very hard. You can justify it a little more by saving the $ spent on headers by using truck manifolds to make the turbo system. The supporting mods aren't cheap going turbo.... Fuel system, transmission upgrades, rear end.

Cam/headers/tune will make 400rwhp quite easily though.

it's out of a 2004. What about if I go with the 408 set up with the mods I included without the turbo.
