perf mods
just bought a 2000 a4 vette, i have the following mods on the way.
B&B bullet catback, halltech stinger r intake, ls6 intake manifold, corsa o/r x-pipe, and once i get everything installed, im getting an ls1 edit tune. how much rear power increase should i expect?
once i get more money, im getting 3.42s, yank ss3600 TC, tranny cooler, and Kooks LTs and retune.

Don't bother tuning with those small mods - waste of money. Also x-pipe - save your money - do it when you do the Kooks (and I hope high flow cats)
As for gain - maybe 20 or 25rwhp at the high end.
Future - 3.42:1 is not a major increase - try 3.73:1 gears instead, especially if you have 3.15 right now.
Good luck.

Mods alone 20ish. LS1 Edit Tune depends on tuner. I have heard about tuners unleashing 10-20 more ponies.
The Kooks LTs will give you a nice SOTP gain. Also as menitoned above do the X pipe with the LTs save labour $. Also may I suggest don't bother tuning now . Do 1 tune only save $ . Your initial mods won't require a retune.

do it once get a nice Higher stall converter and 3.73
Then the engine, headers, H/C Get the manifold on when you start on the engine .
Biggest gain is the gears and converter
When you do the engine on the 2000 which is what i have and have done .
Do the Rod Bolts ,timing chain ,oil pump .(Katech)
Vendors will assist you but if I can help ,drop me an e-mail
