M6 > A4. Horsepower, not track times.

I think the general rule for drivetrain loss is as follows, but I'm sure there will be some that dispute it.

A4=15-20%
M6=10%

Automatics have more drivetrain loss and will always dyno lower especially with bigger stalls. Manuals have less drivetrain loss and always dyno higher.

Glad to see you decided on something Matt. Good luck with it all. You're going to love the new found power and sound.

Thanks Nate. Once I get some heads, I'll be getting close to your setup!

Well, by then I hope to be converted over to a Super Victor/4150 TB/Nitrous Outlet Stinger Plate. That's what I'm saving for now. The old LS6 intake ain't cutting it.

I'm thinking a Fast 102 and some heads next year...

FAST 102 is nice, I just can't justify the cost of one. I can do a Super Vic./4150 TB setup for much cheaper and the Super Vic./4150 setup will make better power with the right cam.

I'm a sucker for the aesthetics.

Car dynoed at 365 rwhp but they said something was going on with it. A guy there in a 5th gen was also very disappointed with his dyno results. I personally think the car is pretty quick for what it has done to it. Pulling out of speed inc i gave it a good rip and it was awesome lol completely new car and felt great which is why i didn't get caught up in the numbers. It idles pretty nice and has a good chop and if i had to do it over again I would.

Are you running cats or an ORY?

I have the SI5 tuned by speed inc as well. Gained about 50 hp and 25 tq but gained a lot under the curve. I really like the cam as did my but dyno. What part of Illinois you in?

In my sig there is a link to my dyno numbers. It has both before and after on there

I'm in central IL, just outside of Champaign.

I am in Palatine, about an hour out of Chicago. I have a couple buddy's that go to University of Illinois and i visit them quite often, just not in this bs weather. Furious 1 I have a hooker ORY, cutout, and stock catback. If I were you I would get an UD pulley put on while they are in there and they most likely won't charge you for labor. I think they go for around 200. I plan on just putting a bullet off of the collector now that I have a dd and don't drive it that much, good way to shave 50 lbs or more.

Thanks Holloway- I will look into the UD pulley. One more question- with this cam and the ORY/stock CB, how is the smell and the noise level? Overall loudness/rasp/drone?

Mine is on a dumped y pipe for the time being.thats drones some but does not bother me I have the parts to install true duals dumped when it gets nice out.

Holloway5

Not bad actually. Smell is strong for me when i open the cutout and loud as hell but other than that its pretty good when its closed, and not to loud. I have noticed a little drone, but it's not something that really sticks out enough to bother me.

Furious1

iTrader: (1)

Alright, great. Smell is my biggest concern with the ORY, followed up with it being a tad too loud. Sounds like it will be acceptable.

Holloway5

Keep us updated with the results when shes done!

Did you guys see Matt's (Furious1) WS6 in the latest edition of GM High Tech Performance? Car looks amazing Matt. Everytime I see your car with my old wheels, I kind of wish I'd have never sold them. Congrats!!!
