What kind of #'s do you think this 383 would put down

93 TA A4, 383 Stroker... CAI, Pretty much stock heads (maybe minor porting)...A cam the size of a Hotcam, maybe a little smaller, shorty emmission headers, stock TB, stock injectors.....everything else on the car is stock


What do you think it would put down? just make some estimates

Firstly the obvious issues is that the engine can't breath.

Secondly, the stock injectors from a 93 will starve that thing for fuel. I understand wanting to do things on a budget, but some things just can't be cut out.

I would tell your buddy to take his time and do the project right.

A friend of mine has a bored ltq (385) and everything is stock and it puts down 340hp. So you should be right about there maybe a hair more but you gotta go bigger on the cam and heads man
