13.25 is not terrible but with your mod's, I think you should be doing better. Where are you running? Elevation matters as well. A stall will help big time.

My 2001 Z28 a4 with street tires...and 2.73 gears ran consistant 12.90s @ 108.5mph...

Mods:
Pacesetter LTs
Offroad y-pipe with a DynoMax bullet
SLP airlid
HPTuners tune

I think a tune would help you out big time.

I think the times should be better. But track conditions are important.

That doesn't sound all that bad, it could be a little quicker. To get a better answer, post up the complete slip. Also, what gears do you have?

Depending on his gears, he might go slower.

M/T drag radials slowed my car down...they hooked too good for 2.73 gears.
