Good job! Unfortunately, I didn't have no luck yesterday. I might try again tonight since it's slick tire t/t night.

Your car responds very well to nitrous for the mods you have. Do you have LS6 heads also?

Not as far as i know, just the intake and block, not sure on how to check the heads.
Im guessing on the NA times, i havent really found anybody else with the LS6 combo with a hardtop and 323 gears. I know ive walked away from other 12.8 cars from a roll, but really i have no idea.


So wheres my 11 sec club avatar?

What was your full timeslip? Wet or dry shot? How big of a shot?

Im going to be trying again next week, this time, no sway bars, Transmission slippage in 3rd fixed, TB coolant bypass, and retune for a slighty larger shot, going to a 150 this time.

Once again, probably be told to leave after the first pass. Hopefully i can make 2 passes before im told to stop.

Whoa! With headers and a stall, you should see high 11s, very low 12s. That's not common for an A4 car with 3.23s to run mid 12s @ 108 with no headers and a stall. Even with the tuning you have, your car must be a factory freak, unless your car had some work done to it that you and I are unaware of. You said you bought the car with the lid, catback and sfcs already installed right?
