Need expert advice!

**jimmyjones** · 04-28-2008, 05:29 PM

So I finally got to test drive a 2006 Z06. And I must say I am highly impressed! I have a bone stock WS6 and need advice on how to upgrade it. I want as much horsepower as I can get while at the same time keeping my car reliable. Im thinking around 420 RWHP.....Is that correct? I want no drugs and no turbo or superchargers. My budget is 5K-10K. (Including any other upgrades) Any suggestions since I am new to this??

m6 or a4?

Lid $100
FAST 90/90 $1200?
Long tubes $500-900
Catback/Duals $500-900
Moser 12/9" w/ 4.11's or 3.73 $2000 give or take
Heads- $1200
Cam, springs, rods $700
Tune $500
Stall $500

All that given a good tune should give u 420+ to the wheels and send you into the 11's if u can drive.

Ask in the western regional forum, you will get a good answer in there.

these dont include install. (im guessing)
save yourself a ton of $$$, do the labor yourself with help of friends. pay them in beer/pizza during installs.
