Re: wana go fast

Cam, better flowing heads, stall if A4 and then something bigger like supercharger or spray.

Re: wana go fast

Maybe $3000 for cam, ported and prepped heads, 1.6s, gaskets and other junk, and add some for a dyno tune or for a mail order tune. You need some kind of cold air intake if you don't already have one.

Re: wana go fast

I don't think you'll see 370rwHP with an LT4 HOT cam on a basically stock engine with an exhaust.

Here's a heads/cam package, which, with supporting mods, will get you there:

Re: wana go fast

thanks for the links it had some useful information
and buy the way your car has to be a wheel stander maybe
one of the fastest on the planet ! just got back from
bike week at myrtle beach going to upload some pictures



getting to 375hp is going to bust the budget what can take me
to the next level ?? any more good bolt on's thanking more
about 330 -340 hp anyone got this

Gm847 cam with comp 918's on stock heads should net you 375rwhp. Are you doing the work yourself?

Those numbers are incredibly not typical.

OP - most TYPICAL cam swaps yield 320-350whp.

330-340whp with bolt ons is also unheard of, unfortunately. Have you considered nitrous to get what you want out of the car?
