any shop thats willing to tear into the engine should do it. I would call around locally and see if you can find somebody who knows lt1's. they would be your best bet, also should be cheaper because they have done it a few times.

Full long tubes and good exhaust? With the hotcam should put you in the 310-325 to the wheels catagory. Assuming a good tune and everything runs well. (I have seen more, but I'm not optimistic when it comes to power gains)

if your car is a m6 and you have a good tune you could throw down 340rwhp. with an a4 maybe 330rwhp. LT's headers will make more than mids or shorties. Your looking at a 50-60 gain
