That will easily shoot you past an 05/06 A4 cause it'll deliver a sling shot to the wheels and man the response is great. I would recommend a Vigilante torque converter. He was running 12.2-12.5 quarter miles with no sweat. That should be something to think about.

You do realize that is 100% incorrect right?

The LS1 had 350bhp no matter what it was in Vette, GTO or F-Body. The C5 had a slightly better exhaust but in the end it was the same.

As a matter of fact I have had two LS1 Camaro SS's one M6 the other A4 and a 2006 GTO M6. The M6 was a 2000 with the OE SLP cat-back and I added Blackwing/SLP lid and filter and also a SLP Y-Pipe. The A4 was a 2002 and had the same induction and cat-back added. My 2000 M6 was faster than my GTO and my 2002 would get edged out by a LS2 M6.

So basically 300whp in a 3400lb F-Body is equal too 350whp in a 3700lb GTO.
