Default '98 mild cammed A4.

Went to Silver Dollar last weekend to run the new combo. The weather was almost perfect mid 60's but running against a head wind. The results were much better than expected. First pass was a 12.23@113. Both figures blew me away. Previous best before the valvetrain and converter on KDWSs were 13.00@108. Those tires hooked terribably...Pepboys UltraZ are better. Anyways the car ran consistantly between 12.15-12.25 @113-114 over a dozen hot laps. Let it cool down once but the times didn't improve. Dyno results here https://ls1tech.com/forums/dynamometer-results-comparisons/584294-vengeance-224-112-stalled-a4-cats.html Not bad for 130,000 mile daily driver...

The best was a 1.85, all the passes averaged out to 1.91. I generally brought the engine up to 2000, rolled into it a little bit and would be WOT in about 25ft.. I think a 11.9999 would have been possible with drag radials
