Default All most 12s.........

I ran PB today of 13.09 @107.00 with a 60' of 2.063


I have the following mods: Lid, Ported TB, LM1, LCAs, SFCs and a tune. My car is a 00 WS6 A4. Below is a link to a PIC of my two best passes, My number is 201. I was pretty happy!

Nice times for minimal mods. Makes my car look like ****. Must be due to me having no tune.

Cut a 1.99 and you're in the 12's.

My best is a 12.84@107.77 with a 1.999 60ft. I had LTs, O/R Y, CB, Electric Cutout, Lid, FTRA, LS6 and Ported TB...no tune, stock 16inch snowflakes on street tires. My only suspension mod at the time was UMI Relocation brackets....

Once again good time

A stall and some dr's should be you next mod, that should drop you down to a 12.6. I couldnt get under a 2.0 60' with the stock stall even with nitto drag radials.

Yea I've been thinking about getting a canned tune. I'm not ready to put $400-450 down for a full tune with just bolt ons

Maybe even more depending on the converter...and how well he hooks.

If I could do my mods over I would have done a converter first

I'm going to get a torque arm before I get a converter so I can hook better.

I have DRs, but they have seen better days. They are about 7 years old.
