Recipe for 600-650RWHP without a cam!

I know you said no CAM but I have an A6 and hit 630 RWHP and drives completely stock. Went with the LS9 CAM just for that very reason. Wanted reliability and stock driving manners.

I'm not going to completely rule out a cam, if I do I want the BTR Stage 3, however I will probably wait later down the road for a cam, but thanks!

Is there any particular boost-a-pump that would work

After all that I never got one $ent income from sales and only recovered half the cost of the new TBs and my new LS2 TB bought and paid for by me was sold to someone else! Be careful who you invest with!

Dont forget your Super Chiller.

The LSA VMAX gave me a total HP gain of 0. It was installed last and dyno'd before install and after. No gain

The Kenne Bell Boost-a-pump worked well in my application. If you get it from Lingenfelter the have a kit specific to the Camaro with all the wiring and other parts you need plus instructions. You could save some money possible by sourcing all the little extras yourself.

9.5" or 10" lower
Tune

If there is anything I have missed let me know!
Thanks
To make that hp you can skip the VMAX, the rest of your list looks great. I would also change to a NGK TR7 plug. It goes without saying, but have it dyno tuned afterwards. Depending on how much boost you are trying to put to it you may find yourself getting limited on timing without a cam change as well, so you want to make sure you are getting the most out of your set up without setting it on kill.

This will be a great package for street driving and it is something we sell/install all the time. No decrease in driveability and they feel like animals on the street!

If you're going to tune it anyway, what about just putting an LS3 throttlebody on it?

Has anyone installed the JDP ZL700 kit. Dollar for Dollar that seems like a great deal, and wouldn't that make over 600 rwhp on M6??? Seems they pick a lot of parts for you, or is a lot of those parts not needed.

Not trying to thread jack. But within two weeks I'm going to order some go fast parts and want over 600 rwhp also.

Haha i will make a thread once I get it started, have to finish up a couple other things but within two weeks this will be ordered, unless someone says don't buy it. I did contact them, and had them remove the CAI and TB since I already have that CAI, and a ported TB. They gave me a better price.
