If you have any drivetrain mods(gears/converter), it'll be less than what others have posted.

Every car is different and don't be disappointed if it comes in low. I've seen numbers as low as in the 250WHP range on a bone stock A4.

Mine is an M6 and when I dyno'ed the original motor with a Volant CAI and Borla XR1 Catback, it only made 296WHP/ 301#torque.

I'd read a lot of claims on here before hand and it was quite disappointing to get those numbers...

Then I installed LGM LTs with SLP high flow cats, Xpipe and stingers, along with an LS6 intake and ported Tbody and laid down 335WHP/355#torque at the wheels with a LS1 Edit tune.

The new motor combo disappointed yet again. Forged bottom end, TR 224/224 114LSA cam, Ported 98 model LS1 heads with 2.02/1.57 Valves and all the other mods... It made 375WHP/ 370#torque with an LS1 Edit tune.

Shoot low and be pleasently surprised!

Mike
