That look's close to what I would expect to see for a auto. Look into a tune I think you might do better.FWIW. But I am no expert.

Those numbers sound about right. Most #'s people post are through a m6 not an a4. You also have 2.73's so it may have been dynoed in 2nd gear. Stock converter? locked or unlocked?

First dyno in my car last week, with mods in sig. This was on a DynoJet, the temp was 70.03 with 22 % humidity with 30.12 in-Hg. I put down 323.48rwhp/342.10tq. My a/f seems to be way off at 11.9 - 12.0 but very flat. If my a/f was correct, say @ 13 I think it would have been possible to get about 330 - 335 out of it. Have you had it tuned? With your mods and a good tune I think you could get 335 - 345. This was with the car hot, it was on the dyno within 5 min. of getting there. Good luck. I did install headers this past weekend I'll post new numbers after the tune on thursday.

New #'s in sig. I guess the a/f wouldn't have made much difference. The tuner said maybe only 2-3 hp on original dyno. This was in third gear, unlocked. There is still a few more hp left in it, but I wanted to stay on the safe side... and if we locked the convertor he said I probably would have seen closer to 350 rwhp. But all I really care about is the #'s it's going to get at the track.

The 2.73 gear and the stock converter are hurting you, my bone stock 01 A4 Z28 (with 2.73 and stock converter) AFTER AN HPTune put down 275rwhp, although it does need some new plugs and the crap driven out of it more often
