You could see gains up to 320 rwhp. Then again you may not see that much. IMO, you cant go wrong installing these mods. :yesnod: Just be aware that your car will be louder with the headers installed. :smash:

No programming needed for these mods.

I just put a LS6 intake, Balanger long tube headers, a VaraRam intake system on my A4 Coupe with Corsa Indy's - I went from 304 HP to 334 HP . I just came home from doing the Dyno @ SpeedTek in Dallas. Now I'll tweek the computer with LS1 Edit & probably get another 6 to 10 HP ..

:cool: :cheers: :smash: :seeya

I have the Blackwing w/ Magnaflow exhaust, I have been wondering if I should go w/ a CAM swap or new headers? I am also adding 3.42 gears and a TC.

It sounds like the headers may be a better first choice?

Dyno numbers in sig.
