Default UPDATE: The SS performance...

Well I emailed MTI about the situation and never got a reply back via email.

But I DO have some good news. Last night we took the car to the track with the new tuning. Put her in line, stalled her at about 2500 RPM results:

Reaction: 1.801 (Took my time
60 ft= 1.59
1/8= 7.399 MPH 90.271
E.T.= 11.639 @116.241 (Plugs were PITCH black so shes still running rich)

When I got the slip I was very impressed bc Ive been waiting A LONG time to run this decent.

We sprayed it:

60 ft: 1.559
1/8th: 7.041
E.T. 11.027@123

Next weekend were putting on a TNT 150 shot and see what happens

MTI makes a great package and I know we can bring her down to 11.30-11.40 all motor when we lean it out. Hope to see 10.70's on the TNT kit.

One more thing: My car has NO weight reduction. It actually has extras like Wolfe Roll Cage, Suspension, etc. so shes HEAVY!

Well thanks for reading and we are very impressed the way she ran last night!

Good man for posting Snax.

116mph NA is excellent for a full weight A4.

What kit are you using now?

Thanks. The car has a Nitrous Works Kit so its not all that great. We hope to see at least 11.40's@118 next weekend with a little more tuning.

Right now she weighs close to 3800# with extra weight and driver.

We are Extremely Satisfied at this point.

11.4@118mph with h/c and a full weight car would be very good.

Yeah I know it Can be done! And it will be done with this package. The weather was very hot to we were sweating.

I still have Mac Mid-lenths I want to swap out to the Kooks LT's maybe I'll see a tenth with that.

Also I purchased the Scanmaster to help with tuning the car. Right now shes flying and we are the 2nd maybe even the Fastest N/A LS1 In deep south Texas right now at the Bad Edinburg Raceway.
