Default hp loss going from 10 bolt to 12 bolt
If I went from a 3.42 10 bolt to a 3.73 Moser 12 bolt what kinds of hp loss would I see and would the gear difference make up for the loss in the 1/4?

I think you will see the same kinda times if not better sense you can now hook slicks off a higher rpm launch with out breaking your rear and those 3.73 will help out some also

The 12 bolt with those gears will MORE than make up for any dyno number loss.

With an A-4 you will not see much gain on the gear swap because your 10 bolt would launch you pretty hard.
