I hope to change my avitar tommorow when i hope to see 11's. for back ground I have a 2000 A4 only mods i had on it were Corsa Exhaust and a vortex airbox. 2:73 stock rear. It Dyno'd 303 rwhp. with the stock tune. i was running 13:20- 13:25 . I put in a Predator tune and it was a nice mod @ the time.. started running 12:90 and a few 12:85's. well i picked it up from Cartek last night for Part one of my babys make over. Cartek installed 3:73's , 3600 stall, Kooks 1 3/4 full length headers , no cats. Ls6 intake and there 2x cam package, underdrive pullys, double roller timming chain and a harmonic balencer. Did not do the heads yet, hope to put them on this summer. after a dyno tune she made 376hp to the tires.. i will post the dyno sheet tonight . with the addition of M/t drag radials i hope to see some 11:8's tommorow. I just wanted to thank dave and all the guys @ cartek. they answered every question i had. i was very impressed with the numbers , since i am useing stock LS1 heads.
