I bought this car about 8 months ago and was going through all the papers I got with it and found this dyno sheet. Seems to me like the torque is kinda low but to be honest I really wouldn't know. I have read that with an A4 and a stall that one will have lower than actual dyno numbers, does this effect torque more than HP or vice versa or are they both effected the same?

Anyhow I'm just interested in some opinions good or bad. Thanks

Car is a 00 with LS6 intake, PRC stage 1.5 243 heads, Torquer-2 232/234 .595/.598 114LSA, 48lb Injectors, LG Street headers, high flo cats, X pipe and Ti exhaust, 3200 Vigilante stall, built trans and 3:42 gears.

I believe your lower readings are only about 3% ?? I would think you would be about the 430 area with your setup, but I'm just guessing.
