What mph with these mods? My 98 SS A4. Has a ST3500, ported MAF, most free mods(no timing tricker), lid, cutout, 3.23s, skinnies/ET Drags(mph killer) and no weight loss.
It ran 105.59 today and I though that was pretty good, sound decent?

Re: What mph with these mods? I see your from SD I take it you run your car at Carlsbad? How does that converter and ET drags hook at that track? Nittos on my car were useless there I can only imagine how a converter would kill your tires even worse.
Nice run BTW.

Yup Carlsbad <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0"> They worked pretty good(best of 1.78) today, although I need to get used to how this stall works with this car. They hold my 550 rwtq car well too with a best of 1.61 there.
Nice times for you too Jack. <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0">

Re: What mph with these mods? With my older PY3400 stall and 15" ET drags I ran 12.88@106.5, I was basically stock with TTS headers, lid, and gmaf. Get yourself a underdrive pulley next, it was worth a bit for me.

The 01 should be faster even but I assume that was at LACR. No pulley for me since it has a large stereo in the car.

Re: What mph with these mods? That was the MPH at Carlsbad. At LACR that same combo ran 13.23@101.74mph. <img src="images/icons/wink.gif" border="0"> When I added cutouts, a pulley, ST3800, and FTRA my LACR times went down to 12.82@104.75, never ran that combo at Carlsbad.
2001s make a bit more power stock, but its not all that significant. My old 98 ran 12.84@105.5 with similar mods (stall, cutouts, pulley, lid, slicks) at Carlsbad, so it sounds like you are right where you should be.
Regarding the pulley, these alternators put out like 140amps. I wouldn't worry about it. <img src="images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">
