98 ta auto has slp 85 mm mass air and lid and ramair box it ran a 14.33 1/4 mile what can i do to get in the 13s or 12s thanks

 

Ditch the mass air sensor and put it back to stock.

What was the weather like on your 14.33, and what was your 60' and trap speed? What is your track's elevation?

Best mod for an A4 is torque converter along with sticky tires (drag radials or better), shift kit, tranny temp gauge and cooler. That drops 0.5 on average.

Do a search for "first mods".

Not a horrible 60ft, something is killing your top end. I agree change back to stock maf.

 

you can keep maf just look into a dyno tune like the ls1 edit at dez racing if not going that route than put back stock. tci converter w/ cooler and tires would give you biggest gain . gl man

 

something tells me hes not close enough for dez if he was racing in tx

 

i had the same problem with my 98 when it was stock. it went 13.8 @ 102 or something, then went in the 14's the rest of the night...

i got a thermostat, fan switch, lid, and ftra plus a FULL tune up (see below) and then ran back to back 13.40's @ 104-105mph

don't even worry about the ftra, ditch the maf, clean your stock one (with "qd electrical contact cleaner), get a lid (100$), fill the tank with 94 octane, and re-set the ecu = (put key in "on" position, pull "pcm bat" and "pcm ign" fuses, then turn key off. wait 20 minutes and replace the fuses). drive the car around for a few days and then go back to the track to try again.

other things to replace for cheap are the fuel filter, plugs, air filter etc...cats can clog also, there are a million things but it definetly is not running correctly.

 

really good 60 ft time...i wish i could drive a stick consistently to 2.0 60" times

 

the dez racing i think can do it if you mail your pcm i'm not sure. its just a little drive anyway lol. i had slp maf i just changed it back to stock. kept smoothe bellow though. one guy said he lost 9h.p. because of slp maf. thats what i was told not sure if its true or not. but gl anyway.

 

thank ever body
