With just those three mods a 'properly tuned' LS3 A6 car should make over 400rwhp...on the low side it might be 390rwhp and on the high side it might make 415+rwhp, depending on the type of dyno used.

I have an 08 with headers, vararam, tune, and stingers and put down 393hp and 392tq on a mustang dyno. I'm happy with it. I might do a stall and cam but I'm still up in the air about it.

396RWHP and 383RWTQ. Kook, no cats, stingers, and K&N. On a mustang. Ran a 11.9@120mph. 1.90 foot stock tires.

Install a 226/238 cam this winter - hoping to hit 440-450RWHP.
