M6 will dyno higher than A4. What brand dyno? Dynojet will give you a higher number than a Mustang. With a M6 you should be close, maybe 330-340 HP. If you have an auto, you're gonna be really disappointed.

Underdrive pulley would give you a few hp if you want to stick with bolt ons. Replace the stock cats with high flows will also make a difference.

I have high flow cats on it already. I did it when i did the headers. I also did an X pipe but i think im going to go to an H pipe because the X is a little raspy.

Yeah, an underdrive pulley will free up another 8-10 HP. If you ever plan on doing a cam change, that's the perfect time to do the UD pulley. Not a lot of bolt-ons left other than a FAST 92 intake manifold and bigger TB (but that's expensive). A full catback might be good for another 5 HP, but that's not a good bang for the buck.

get yourself a ported fast intake its like 1100 bux but you will see 20-30 rwhp out of it

you should be around 330-340 i dont see you makeing much more than that with a ls1 even with a great tune

If i was going to spend 1100 bucks i would just do the cam swap. Also i dont see the FAST manifold giving me an extra 20-30 rwhp over an LS6 manifold. Maybe like 10 rwhp. I would really like to get a cam but i cant convince my wife to let me get it. I have to find a good priced one on here or something.

I switched my stock manifold to a FAST 78 and gained 10 HP. Then I went to a ported FAST 90 and gained another 17 HP and a bunch of torque.

but you are correct over a ls6 intake you will only see about 10 to 15 if you are lucky...i thought you were running stock

Yeah thats what i was saying. I already have the LS6 intake so it didnt make sense to me to spend a grand on a FAST intake only to gain another 10 HP. I was saying if i wanted to spend a grand i would spend it on a cam swap and gain roughly 30 HP.

The ported FAST 90 ended up gaining about 27 HP on my 2004 LS1. But, I admit, it's not a big bang for the buck like a cam swap would be. I thought you wanted to know about other bolt-ons, that's why I mentioned it.

So, dyno results???

just put a ls2 intake on it and enjoy the extra cash,more power less money. you really want a bang for the buck bolt on some nitrous,cheapiest HP you can buy.
