Default Real World Numbers

So what does a bone-stock '04 coupe with the A4 and 3.15 gear run in the 1/4 mile and 0-60MPH?

First there will be a vast range of numbers to choose from, since cars, driver's and track conditions are not all the same.

0-60 is just at 4.9 seconds
1/4 ET just at 13.4
Trap Speed between 109 and 111

Remember these are ball park numbers. Real world numbers can vary greatly. I'm sure you'll get many responses with slightly different numbers.

Those numbers seem pretty accurate. Though I believe the 0-60 may be a little faster. GM quotes 4.75 w/3.15 rear and 4.9 w/ 2.73 rear and 4.55 with 6 speed (Driver and track conditions aside).
Here is a link for 2001--same as 2004 http://www.corvettemuseum.com/specs/...erformance.htm

I have seen quite a few A4's run down the track at Firebird when I lived out there. The stock ones with the perf. gear were running 13.4's @ 107-108. Thats about as real world as I can get for you, seeing as it's a track in your area ;) Remember Phoenix is not quite sea level :)

Good luck. After you run it let us know how she does :cheers:
