1st run with my car
Well I went to the track the other day at Sacramento Raceway in Ca, and it was a fun day to say the least. Got 5 runs in and was very happy with the results being my first time to the track. It was about 100 degrees out, around 90 degrees when i made my best run of the night. My first few runs were 13.2s @ 107 with a 2.2 60'. But my best run was this:
r/t: 0.116
60ft: 2.2
330: 5.77
1/8: 8.6 @ 85.9 mph
1000: 11.1
1/4: 13.19 @ 108.4 mph
my mods are listed in my sig, how do you think the results compare with the car? Do I have the potential to get into the 12's with some more seat time or some better tires? a tune possibly? It was a fun day, I hope to improve on it with a few more mods to come here shortly. oh my car is an A4 too.

its an A4
update: well I switched my dynomax bullet out because it was too loud, and will be putting on a full catback of choice shortly. So far I installed a 3in. mandrel bent pipe from the y-pipe to the muffler, leaving the stock muffler and tips on for now. It doesn't feel like I lost much performance, if any at all. All I need is the muffler and tips now though and I'm set.

Not bad, mph shows plenty left. Keep working on the launch and getting your 60 foot times down. I'd say there's a good 12.80 pass with better air and a good launch.
Good luck!

Well I have a few things I want to do to the car before I run it at the track again. I want to secure a 12 second pass my next time out, but I'm going to try and do this without drag radials.
Installing:
-high flow muffler (haven't decided)
-LS6 intake (have)
-March balancer (have)
-PCM reprogramer(don't have)
What kind of times should I expect out this once these are installed compared to my last run with current setup? And I will be doing this on falcon P275s street radials. Any thoughts? I was hoping possibly a 12.7 @ 110?

Even when running on street tires? I thought that top end power would be the best bet to go as I wouldn't be trying to launch any harder than I am, so that I could still reach a 12 second et with a 2.2ish 60'.
But with a TQ, are we talking like .3 difference potential?
