Impressive list of mods. How does that saying go? Oh yeah, speed costs money.....how fast you wanna go? Good luck with your improved Vette.

 

Thanks,
It does cost, but it took almost 2 years and it's fun.

 

I can't believe there haven't been more replies to this post/thread??

Joe's car started as a stock LS1- now, with bolt ons, he's above 400 RWHP with a moderate cam (228!). This proves that the right combos DO maximize efficiency - HP. This is an A4 car that runs/drives as stock!! No surging, no cruise-control, no hiccups - nothing....like stock but with over 450 crank HP.

I'm friggen AMAZED!!

Congratulations Joe!!! You did it!

 

Excellent gains! Thanks for sharing your info with us. Let us know what happens at the track.

 

Joel,
Thanks and the check is in the mail.
I'm surprised too. There have been a number of posts asking to share the results of mods progressively. So, here's one.

DBN,
I will if I can find a track open around here. That's what I'm really interested in, though I will admit 400 is an exciting result for me.
