HP estimates??
Well, I decided to put a cam and headers in my 2000 A4 Vert. Last fall I put on a Blackwing, a B&B catback, changed to 3.42s and dynod 309 hp.
Goin with a 228 cam, a Z06 intake along with Kooks headers and high flow cats.
What ya think the final hp results will be after the tune?? Should be fun!
Changin the converter also by the way..

Re: HP estimates?? (Converter)
I love to play when I drive. I am gonna use a converter which most of you would consider a tad conservative, a 3000. 99 % of my driving will be on the street. I would like to hit the track one time to see what it's like.
Did lots of street racing in my youth..
Hell to grow up!! (well sorta)

Re: HP estimates?? (Fastbasser)
I will be able to give you a very good idea Saturday. My buddy is taking his to the dyno for tuning. 2002 vert, Kooks headers, Vararam, TSP 228 cam and 3.73 gears. I have a 222 cam in my MN6 and dynod at 382, his car feels stronger than mine.

I would love to know what you guys are smoking! He will pickup maybe 35 rwhp with a 228 cam and all the bolt ons. Gary and I have gone the cam route and I would say 340-350 tops. Hell I have some awesome heads and only dyno 371.

I put down 328 with just a Z06 intake and Stingers. The headers should give him about 15 HP, and even a conservative 25 hp from the cam would be easily 370rwhp with his configuration... :confused:
