I hear you on the "why not" I have both a 600rwhp and a 1000+rwhp car. "both twin turbo cars" the big boy is parked most of the time. Just not that fun to drive on the street. Have you driven a car with this much HP. unless you can budget for that A6 build stick with 580-630rwhp, you will be glad you did. + you can always turn it up later as you build supporting mods. Good luck Brother!

oh, dont buy Z06 mufflers.
yes I can budget for the build and trust me I won't be getting z06 mufflers lol I am getting a borla atak exhaust. This will be my first non factory FI car so I was curious to see what 10K would get.

Right on man. Yes 10K will get you over 600, its after that when you need to loosen up the checkbook. your going to have a blast with it. Z06 mufflers neck down to 2 1/2 right before they enter the muffler.

600 crank or rwhp?
I think 600 crank can be had with an E-Force with the big pulley and fuel pump.

the E force is a great option for some fun Power. I think the OP wants more than it can make.

If i were you I would talk with Doug at ECS, He will talk your ear off about what you need for your goal, they have put many big power stock block LS3's out on the street.

It cost me more than that to get 678RWHP through a manual. That was on top of the cam, gears, headers (483RWHP) done years ago when it was NA. You got to pay to play!
Radiator is not necessary, I ran without one at 609rwhp with no issues through a A6. When I had my stall put in my temps got too high too quick so I opted to go with one. Injectors come with a ECS kit so you won't need them, intake is worthless with FI so don't waste your money as is a TB. One thing to think about is gauges though which aren't cheap, nor is the labor overly cheap on them installed.
