I will go out on a limb and say 85% of the cars out there with an aftermarket converter have STOCK trans...try setting up a thread or poll, I bet you will be suprised...

best mod for an a4 is a stall...

Completely agree........Hands down best mod I did to my car. Yeah I noticed with aftermarket cam, the car does not like at all to be stalled low or flashed from idle. I have to footbrake it high as it will hold. When I was stock internals the car loved to be flashed from idle....dunno prob has to do with the prower band with cam being moved up.

with a stall the only thing that needs to be tuned is the shift points...you can also take put the tq management too...

mail order should be fine set it at 6200-6300 and rev a few 100 higher...you will be golden...

yeah i have it set at that already with my handheld, i might just run the converter tuned with handheld until i can afford to take it to texas and get it dynotuned.....and so ur saying leave from idol with stock cam ? then launch different with aftermarket, i think im just gonna have to get it and try different launches..

and i also heard the 2000 camaros came with a weaker posi unit than other years so we will see how it holds up, only has 30,000 on it so it should be fine for awhile !

3600 stall on a stock tranny here. IMO it's probably the best et for the buck mod out there for an A4 car. Maybe it's because I'm running a smaller cam but the sweet spot for my 60fts is at 1500rpm. Best bet is to screw with the launch until you find what works.

I used to be dead set against a stall. I had the wrong idea about them all together, but from here on out it'll be one of the first mods I do.

i talked to dave at Yank, described my car and situation and he said my best bet being a stock internal full bolt on car is to run the PT4400, He told me with that stall and a full dynotune i could expect a second off my time. He also said when i get a cam and am throwing down some more power he will re-stall it to an SS4000 for free...i am very excited and he was a great guy to talk to ! really knows his stuff. Anyone have good expiriences with the PT4400 ?

I loved the PT4400 and had great success with it, but Chrs1313 had amazing success with the SS4000. Almost seems backwards to start with a PT then go to an SS. Maybe because you're going for a max effort setup?

I am also a ss3600 a4 guy. 11.84@113 w/ full bolt-ons and stock 60,000 mile tranny. 1.58 60ft mine does like to be stalled to about 2500rpms. Hands down the best mod for stock car. Also, don't forget about a good tranny cooler.

To the OP a stall is the best bang for the buck in A4 cars..

I finally gave in and bought a Stall/LT's/ORY/342-373s got a rear out a 6 speed car for free./DR's/Frost.My best 1/8th right now is a 8.54 in the 1/8. Thats a good gain. I have 273s right now.
