Can a manual '02 WS6 with bolt ons only hit 400 RWHP??
Hey All,
Ok, I'm on another forum where this kid thinks he can go buy a manual 2002 WS6 and only add bolt ons and he will hit 400 RWHP. Is the a realistic possibility? He also adds that BONE stock all t/a's hit 320 RWHP. I need some LS1tech quotes that I can paste and copy to prove to this kid that it's not that easy!!
What do you guys think?
What is the actual documented BONE stock RWHP of a t/a?
I have alot done and even with my cam I've only hit 348 RWHPon a mustang dyno! All stock I was at around 280RWHP on the mustang dyno.
Thanks,
~~Jess

bone stock RWHP varies but most dyno at around 300rwhp, i dunno about that 400 number at the wheels on bolt-ons, i guess he would have to have everything under the sun bolted on

While you're at it, what is the likelyhood an M6 TA with stock headers and LS6 intake manifold can hit 346/360 with just other minor bolt-ons? Seems POSSIBLE, but not very common...
I hate how people take factory freaks and try to pass them off as a common thing...

that is a hard number to hit i know ppl that have a cam and long tube headers and are only putting 370ish to the wheels so i d k i would have to say no, but then again THERE MIGHT BE A CHANCE LIKE MAYBE A 0.000001% CHANCE BUT IN REALITY I SAY NO!!

i have a 2000 ss a4 and stock no tune it did 305.9 rwhp with a cam and valvesprings it did 397.6 and with a 100 shot of nos it did 487.2 rwhp so bolt ons its possible mine did 305 add headers would get u 20hp a lid 10hp and a good tune 30hp and tune for e-85 fuel and its possible

Only if somebody cheats and pulls dyno tricks, other then that the number 360rwhp is about close as any ls1 will get, more so an M6. A4's won't even come close to 350rwhp with bolt ons, and I'd like to see your dyno with cam only doing 397.6. Must be a huge *** cam.
A4's don't show the same results as M6 cars do, you won't get 20rwhp from headers in an A4 car, and tune will not get you 30rwhp either.
Even if it did net you all that your still only talking about 355rwhp, 45rwhp away.
Peace,
Craig.

Bolt ons are consisted of...
Full exhaust
headers
cutout(s)
H/X/Y-pipe
muffler(s)
Intake
high flow air filter
air lid/cai
ram air plate/scoop
throttle body
intake manifold
Engine
underdrive pulley
electric water pump
spark plugs/wires
Basically a bolt on is considered something you can simply bolt on and get minimal-moderate power out of, exsisting externally from the engine. I know S/C, turbos and nitrous exist externally...but they are power adders because of their mass output in power. Some people consider rear ends/gears to be bolt ons, as well as drag radials. I've also seen people consider torque convertors for automatics a bolt on.
But full bolt ons on a M6 LS1 will generally put down anywhere from 350-375 rwhp, depending on the tune. Tuning plays a big part in determining the outcome of rwhp numbers.

i could see it hitting 385-90ish w/ LT headers, true duals, Mamo ported FAST 90/90, lid, elec. water pump, pulley, and a great tune....but not 400
some realllly light wheels perhaps to get the dyno #s up....?
