trying for 12's with an a4 ta i'm goin to the track sometime in early march, and i have a 98 a4 with 2.73's, cut-out, lid, filter, tranny cooler, and a 3400 stall (2.1 str) on yokohama street tires. i kno every car varies but do you think i'd be able to reach 12's with this set up?
thanks

My friend cut a 12.96 on street tires. He's got TSP True duel exhaust with bullit mufflers, Hypertech powerprogrammer, SLP Bilstein shocks and whisper Air lid. Well the tires are Nitto 555's. But it was still a great time with out a stall.

Due to the high gearing of 2.73's with sticky tires, it puts all the stress on the transmission instead of the rear.
