Engine power making combo?
hey, i want to get some good horsepower out of my car, and i was looking at a supercharger. well, they are expensive and i dont want to break anything, so now im looking for a setup that would give me good horsepower but also good drivability (emissions is no concern), AND NO NOS!!!
Im lookin at a cam, with my stock heads, and i dont know what else would go good with a cam; enlighten me. Which cam, would i want different heads, or injectors? Just let me know what a good combo would be (im looking for about 350-400 hp). Thanks
ps. i got the exhaust and cold air already, so.

350-400 flywheel or rwhp? If it is flywhell a simple cam swap with some headers and a tune would do it, im probably leaving out some simple stuff though. If not you are going to need some heads to get 350-400 rwhp.
Search around on here there are numerous threads on which cams work with stock heads and such.

cam/roller rockers, and rest of valvetrain/longtubes/tune...should put you in the area of 350ish...is this a m6 car or a a4...if its auto you are gonna want a stall with a cam
Re: Engine power making combo?
ive got the 6-speed, and what cam do you recommend yourself James? Also if i didnt get any headers would it still be close to 400 mark? i dont really care if its rearwheel or flywheel, just want 400 hp somewhere, lol. also would i need new rockers, pushrods and such?

Ya can do it in the car.

Re: Engine power making combo?
Whatever you do, just do it right and do it once. You mentioned something about not having/getting headers. You gotta start from the ground up, it's kinda self-defeating to tear into the motor just to limit yourself in other places(such as exhaust). Make sure you have the full supporting bolt-ons before you go internal.

You will need headers if you want to make any real hp. I would recommend an Ai setup. They are now offering some pretty cheap stuff and Ai's quality is awesome. Their webpage is www.advancedinduction.com
