Default Dead spots?

All mainly stock A4's have them. It also depends on the gear in your car as well. Im very intrested in seeing what gear you A4's have and what dead spots are you expierencing?

Mine is a mainly stock(lid, FRA!, K&N) it has a GU2(2:73) gear in it. Im am expierencing my dead spot form about 50-65 ish. Everything before it and after it pull fairly hard for stock. So basically my 2nd isnt that strong it seems like. Any of you expierencing this with my type of setup?

Lets hear some other setup's and their dead spots?

Also, the 3.42's made a big difference. My car felt like one big dead spot in town with the 2.73's.

35 is my sweet spot thats where it pulls the hardest. I know some mods that would take care of those spots. Do you run a tranny cooler with your stall?
