Just got back from the track and knocked almost 8/10th off my quarter mile times! If you haven't seen my previous post, the best time I was able to get with the car completely stock was [email protected]. The weather was almost identical today. This is an A4 car with a little over 1500 miles. The car loves mods and responds very well to them. The mods responsible for this ET are:


- Vigilante 2600 stall converter
- BFG 275/40R17 Drag TA's on stock wheels (the fenderwell lip had to be rolled for these to clear)
- Removed 115 lbs from the car (motor skid plate, trunk brace, spare tire, jack, and wheel chocks, torque converter weighed 25 lbs. less than stock!) - most of this weight was removed at the track in about 20 minutes.
- Unifilter cold air intake
- Removed MAF screen
- Bypassed water through throttle body

The car was going consistent 1.8 60 ft/times with a best of 1.779. I think it will take either more motor or a higher stall converter to lower the 60 ft any more than this. I am happy with the 60 fts, but it still seems like the mph is a little low. After seeing Speed Inc's dyno results for their upcoming GTO headers, I think a set would easily put this car into the 12.80's. In the meantime, I have a ported throttlebody and an electric Meziere water pump coming. If we have another good weather day, it might run 12's even before the headers arrive!

It sounds like a pretty serious modder to have torn that new engine apart already, with untested parts nonetheless. He sounds pretty excited to be nearing the 12's. But that's nothing a lightly-equipped L can't handle.

Has anyone seen dyno numbers on that thing? I looked at the forum and couldn't find any.
