Default Full bolt ons on 2000 T/A 89667 miles

Hello

I have a 2000 T/A(stock) and I want to start the mods on it. I want to start with Full Bolt ons. How much HP will that deliver on my LS1.

Also eventually going to cam it and put heads in it, so over all where will my car be sitting at in HP with full bolt ons and H/C all together. Thanks in advance

You need to be way more specific. Which heads, which cam, which bolt-ons?

Is this A4 or M6 also I wouldn't get caught up on numbers so much as what it will run at the track.

Good starting point for bolt ons would be : SE 1 7/8 headers, SE true dual 3" exhaust, FTP 98mm lid, 85mm truck maf, Fast 92, 92mm TB, Powerbond 25% udp - That would be a great combo and also support most Heads Cam packages you can throw at it.

But before you do anything I would make sure all the basic maintenance is done and everything on the car is working as it should Fluids Plugs an so on.

I don't know about horsepower numbers, but with an A4 my longtube headers / ORY (now has after market high-flow cat) / Borla Catback, FAST LSx 92mm Air Intake Manifold / Throttle Body, 3.73(or whatever) Rear Gears and SLP Air Lid with some minor weight reduction has really woken my car up. I don't even have a tune or higher stall Torque Converter yet, and I absolutely spanked my friend's brand new SRT-8 Challenger. I don't mean I walked him, I mean I hooked and put him in the rear view mirror by 3rd Gear. (I think it's because of how heavy the Challenger is.) I ran a brand new GT 5.0 Coyote Mustang, and he beat me, but we were neck and neck until about 90 MPH, and then he started to walk from me. When my front tires were getting behind his rear tires I flashed my lights in "I give up" signal. That's pretty cool for a 21 year old car (1998 WS6.)

Good luck. I recently got a 2001 Z28 with the 4L60e. I'm in California so I'm going to go with mods that will still allow me to pass smog. That means I'll port my heads, gasket match the LS6 intake, tires, and weight reduction. I'm going to Irwinddale on June 20th to see what she runs bone stock.

Get a 3600-4000 stall and some dr’s and you will put some lengths on that 5.0 ( no disrespect ) don’t forget a tune. I’m fbo/ss4000 and it’s a beast for stop light racing for what it is. My 12.1 was with my 3600. Hoping to hit a 11.9 with the 4K/good d/a
