Considering you have an Auto, with a stall and 4:10's, it's going to hurt your dyno #'s a little. However that doesn't mean squat. With your current setup, a good tune should easily get you 380-390 rwhp through that drivetrain, but shouldn't have a problem trapping 118+ in the 1/4.

As you are already running a VERY aggressive cam i don't think you will pick up much more HP as 418 is very stout through an A4. I would imagine you might pick up around 5 to 10 rwhp but would not have big expecatations as that's the best way to get LET DOWN!

I was just hoping to pick up more of a power curve all the way across the board instead of my current cam just peaks real fast

That cam makes some really good numbers, I love mine. Be sure to post the graph when you dyno it.

Man, forget about those Dyno #'s , With that combo, you will be in the 10's ! What's better 450 horses & 11.50's or 420 horses & 10.70's ? You decide!

I didn't see you had heads on there...

BTW, if I might ask, where did you get that cam from?

You can get the TSP 231/237 cam directly from Texas Speed & Performance who are a vendor on this site!

You

My computer crashed and I lost all my passwords...

I think Im gonna stick with the cam I got from you. I have a vig 3600 and 3.73s and it seems to lag after it shifts for a sec. My Yank PT4200 and 4.10s should be here tomorrow as well as the cam..so...I think Im going to try the new stall and gears first

lol...I put 2 & 2 together when I saw the screen name and the cam specs..

418 is pretty damn good man. Was that higher than your original pull that you called me about?
