Default What do you guys think

I haven't had a chance to run my car at the track yet so bear with me. It's a little cold up here in chi-town right now to run it any time soon(car is out away in teh garage for the winter.)
My buddy and I have a little bet going on. Who will run better next summer. He has a 2000 Z28 with a lid, K/N, Magnaflow catback, and T/B bypass. He ran a best of 13.39.
My mods are what is in my sig.
I don't know much about the Volante ram air system but I would think that should make a couple extra lb-ft. of torque.

Let me know what you guys think

I think it will come down to the driver. Is his manual/auto how about yours?

from what ive read here, that flowmaster will choke u up on the high end so either swap it out or dont be supprised if he wins

does he have anything else your not telling us, because i have basicly the same set up as your friend minus the tb bypass and am running 13.6

what kind of trans you guys have, M6 or A4

sounds like on paper it should be close, but as mentioned above, a4/m6 and driver will be a big factor.

We both have A4s. No he has nothing else done to his car. I was able to get my 94vette with an M6 with 75k miles to run a 13.554

flowmaster will be your bottleneck.

if you don't want to change catbacks then at least put a cutout in the I pipe to help the situation.

Exactly how restrictive is flowmaster? Does anybody have any actual #'s?
