Depends. What year? 1997-1999 or 2000-2001. the later models are about 1 tenth quicker, but it all depends on the driver too. Also is it a Manual 6 speed or an automatic with 2.73 gears or 3.15 gears?. Again it all depends on the driver, track conditons, temperature and how well you hook up. In theory a 2000-2004 with an M6 and 3.42 gears (stock) will do the best with a well seasoned driver. Again, there are always factors involved. A 1997 A4 may end up winning over a 2004 M6 because of drivers and experience launching these beasts. Remember we are talking about stock for stock including the Goodyear runflats that are not real sticky. Now if we would be talking stock for stock with drag radials.. Totally different situation

4.7-5.3 is a good range. Sorry I did not mean to get into detail. Wheel spin is good to get you into your peak power zone but too much will have you not going anywhere fast. 4.7 for a manual and 5.0 seconds for the automatic is what the Car magazines such as Motor Trend and Car and Driver have achieved in road tests of the past.

Ok, now that we have estimates on stock times, I want to know this...not trying to get too far off the topic...
What would my estimated 0-60 time be? Now I know it all depends on how I am driving, thus an estimate. I have a 2004 A4 with a 3.15. And while you're at it, possibly estimated 1/4 mile times?
Mods...
Vararam
Carbon Fiber Power Duct (not sure if it does much)
Vararam Velocity Stack
West Coast Corvette Long Tube Headers
Random Technology High Flow Cats
Random Technology X-Pipe
Corsa Tigershark (not that tips matter)
Diablo Sport Predator
The exhaust is all 3 inches from the end of the headers to the beginning of the Corsa, where it is stock 2.75''.
I have Z06 wheels with Michelin Pilot Sports, stock Z06 size. Also some Bilstein sports, again that doesn't matter (at least I don't think so.)
Thanks!
