I'm not qualified to answer, but I'll take a wild *guess*...you didn't mention pulley size or boost. 93 octane?

I'd guess ~570 rwhp.

No on the parts listed, A6 might be the area of concern (proper tune is important here)
Most will likely suggest 100% meth.
Replace the harmonic balancer while apart

Consider creating a build thread and asking for input.


My opinion, worth what you paid for it...

Around 600 whp with a cam, good tune, and 100% meth. There's no need to dump washer fluid into your motor. 100% meth is so cheap and has so many benefits. The one thing I would suggest is a trans cooler. The extra power really heats up these transmissions.

Okay. Thanks a lot. I will do that. I think I saw a place on the AA Corvette thread to do a build page. I will look back over it. Thanks a million. I will have to check on the pulley size but I do know the guys at the garage mentioned ordering a different harmonic balancer.
