New time!

hey guys whats going on? went to the track this afternoon (byron dragway). ran a new best 13.1 @ 107mph. mods in sig. i really need a new converter, i believe it was slipping a little bit. the track was awesome nice and sticky! i couldnt launch any higher then 2,000rpm, i think if i could have had a stall or been able to launch it higher i would have def. ran in the 12's.

good time, have you tried launching from idle because i always thought the a4's got their best times by flashing the converter and not from powerbraking?

i've had my best times from launching the stock converter from ~2k. flashing the stock converter is kind of redundant.

i've also had my best 60s launching my 4k stall from ~3k (or as much as i could torque it up before i pushed through the beams)
