Bolt on time, Help.

hi all, I'm new here and also new to the Lt1.

I'm thinking of starting to mod My 94Z28 A4 so i just wanted to know your thoughts and Ideas.

For starters I'm thinking of getting the following:

Magna Flow cat back.
Hooker LT Headers.
Custom Y Pipe.
K&N CAI and custom ram air Ducts.
Air Foil.
Custom Port the intake and TB.
B&B Tranny Oil Cooler.

waiting for your Feedback Guys.
thanks in advance.

Hello and welcome, your off to a good start, get her inhaling & exhaling right first like you listed, the airfoil doesn't do a whole lot really but most us done it in the beginning, if your going to port the intake I'd say buy a 52mm TB vs porting the stocker, not sure what it costs though to port a stock 48 to 52 maybe it's cheaper. But you have a good starting list, maybe next I'd consider a stall, tires, cam, tuning something like that. Good luck!

I agree its a pretty good start. A couple of opinions from somebody that has been around..... Hookers have been said to leak, some people arent crazy about how the magnaflow sounds, caint go wrong with K&N FIPK, airfoil is a waste of money, throttle body wont help until you are heads/cam. I would say first mods for a A4 LT1 should be

1)CAI
2)Catback
3)Headers/Y
4)Stall/Gears
5)Tire
6)tune if ya want for a couple extra hp's

Then you need to figure out where you wanna go with your car. Nitrous?N/A?Forced induction? Or save for a rebuild

thanks for your input guys, after Im done with all that i want to work on the Chassis & Suspension while the motor gets rebuild, might go for a 383.

but the motor rebuild is something Im sure off, my car has 120*** miles on it when i got it a month ago.

I've had two A4's and from expeience the best mod by far for the A4 was a stall and gears. I dropped .5 off my quarter with the stall and gears. Also sticky tires are important. But other than that you list is a great list to start off with

Looks like a great start, good luck

Also I droped .6 off my 1/4 with just stall and gears, its a must for a a4.

New here also I like the idea of gears and stall. I have already ordered a magnaflo from ws6 store. I am looking at a 2400 stall for my stock lt1. I am currently running 2.73's m/t radials brm subframe and lower control arm. This thing will hook on sand. I also am planning on the 3.73 thing also. I just love cruising 80 at 2,000 rpm lol. I have a MAC Y pipe 2.5 from manifold 3 at the converter, I also plan on a test pipe for the convertor
