Mod Question

**doozjamann** · 05-23-2010, 06:07 AM

I'm debating on what my next mod should be.

First would be a cam, and intake, on the other had I'm thinking about ported LS6 heads 1.8 rockers, and intake. I'm kinda wanting the car to be a sleeper, keep a pretty good mpg. Eventually it's gonna be a HCI car. My goal is just to get somewhere between 420-500 rwhp, I know thats a big gap.

What do you think I should do?

It all depends on your budget, is your car a m6 or A4?
I would say if ya wanna do a head/cam/intake swap i would do it all at once. Instead of pulling the motor apart 3 times.

^Agreed.

I assume you already have Long Tubes?

I've read there are only certain instances where upgrading from the LS6 is really worth the money. I imagine better flowing heads and a bigger cam might be one of those though

What are your current mods?

There will be tons of advice for you, surely. But, what kind of gas MPG do you consider *decent* when a car has 450 HP? Horsepower costs gas, how much do you wanna burn?

Current mods, are just headers, lid, and suspension. Car is a M6. I guess mpg isn't really that big of a deal I have a DD, car is just a play toy now. Budget is 3K for now.

The only reason I suggested heads with 1.8 rockers, is a guy on tech did it and got 400+ rwhp out of it with stock cam and trq was close to 400 too.
