Thumbs up 12.9 at 114mph
The car made 12.9 at 114mph before I left to Korea.

it is a 2002 som z28 a4 and it had the following mods on it when it did this.

-slp air lid
-slp smooth bellows (got it for free)
slp strut tower brace(adds weight)
kyb 8 way adjustable shocks all around (stock springs)
flowmaster catback(was on it when I got it wish I cut it off before I ran the car)
and stock chrome snowflakes with fuzion street tires
-and a ported and polished stock throttle body.

not too bad for damn close to stock

I can see the 12.9 being possible, but man that MPH is high. I haven't even trapped over 110 with LT's, ORY, better flowing muffler than you & a 6-speed.

And no I haven't ran the car with my H/C in my sig. When I ran my 12.9 @ 108.9 I had the following mods & was on KDWS street tires:

Pacesetter LT's
TSP 3" ORY
LS7 clutch/LS2 flywheel
Hooker Aerochamber w/stock I-pipe
SLP lid w/o filter
smooth bellows
