F13 Cam Only - 400 rwhp in an A4! Posted a few weeks ago before the cam/stall. Had some good numbers with 348 HP/349 TQ.
Well now the cam/stall are in and it gained 50 HP. 399.3 HP/374 TQ.

Thanks everyone! Taking her to the track tonight...
Great! The converter is not that noticable and the idle is under control, but you can definitely tell its cammed. I wish the 4th gear lockup was just a little lower than 48mph because its a little harder to hit that in my daily drive. Reverse has a pretty rough idle, lots of surging, not sure if thats normal.

Solid numbers through the auto/stall. Very nice. Post up those track results when you get back tonight! Are you running the Nittos at the track? Get some stickier tires on there and you'll be solidly running 11s. It's not gonna be easy on the Nittos, though, unless you can REALLY shave that 60' down into the high 1.7 range. I'm curious to see how you trap. Good luck, man!

Oh well. Nice numbers either way. The SAE numbers I suspect would be lower.

Not ******* your numbers at all... but they look to be inflated. You dyno'ed 348 rwhp and only ran a 12.9 @ 107 with a 1.95 60'? That trap is more along the lines of a 300rwhp Auto car...

Last night I ran an 11.92 @ 114. Still think they're inflated?
The SAE numbers are of close slightly lower. I think SAE HP was like 388.

1st run (1st run ever with a cam/stall) - 1.719 60', 11.95 @ 114
2nd run (on a hot lap) - 1.695 60', 11.92 @ 114

My m6 car went 117 mph , full weight with only 376rwhp SAE.
114 trap in an auto with a stall is more along the lines of 360-370rwhp.

Jeez, give the guy a break guys. I'm pretty sure his car is full weight or close to it, and he's also been to the track ONCE since the converter/cam install. On a nice chilly night the car would probably run 11.5 @ 116-117 w/o taking any weight out of it once he gets the 60's into the 1.5x range.

I'm more inclined to think you were on a very stingy dyno comparatively. That number you got was low even for an ls1 intake after seeing your car run Thacker.

All this talk of utting 1.7x 60s. i was cutting 1.60s and low ones at that, when i went to the track awhile ago. Im in the same boat with the tranns problems though. I could only hit 12.51@107 cause i was beating the 1-2 and 2-3 shifts, and thats after a tune with an ss4000/3.90s/boltons and MT Drag radials. I am actually waiting for my f13 to get here along with my new FLT LVL4 trans. Im gonna smacl 11s hard with that trans and cam. It was my first time with the stall at the track and it was hot as **** too though. Congrats though man.
