depends on what you had in it before. going from a M6 i'm pretty sure you would loose power but from an A4 i don't think you would loose much, if any.

You will lose power on the dyno because the TH350 takes more power to turn than a T56. But, all else being equal, it *should* be quicker at the track, unless you have a gearing issue. (TH350s *usually* need more gear than a T56 or 4L60E due to deeper gear ratios. For example, a T56 with a 2.97 first gear and a rear end ratio of 3.42 will be more efficient [accelerate quicker] than a 2.52 geared TH350 with the same 3.42 rear gear) Add a transbrake and the gains are more. It is also dependent on your power mods and ability to drive the T56.
