I have been thinking about doing the same thing. I was told with this kit and headers should put us around 800-850rwhp.. I have a A8 and I'm a little worried about the tranny holding up.. Do you have a A8??

Cool, I had a 2013 Z06 that made 643rwhp. I loved that car but want to make more. It actually seemed to handle the power better than my 2016. I have been reading about Edelbrock. I'm waiting on a reply about their warranty. Good luck with whatever build you go with.

IMO the 2300 is too small, waste of money, you can do a pulley swap to gain 100hp, good luck with your build,
