Default A4 Mild Bolt-On Car 328/352

So, I got the car last July and I've slowly been getting things done to it. As much as my college wallet lets me that is. I had a Lid and ported Throttle Body for quite awhile until I went up to a friend's that had a Borla catback for $350. My buddy also had some chromemoly pushrods, a K&N, and some MSD wires laying around. He gave me a pretty hefty discount. While I was doing the pushrods (found a couple mildly bent ones), he ported my MAF ends for free. Well the car didn't like that a couple days later and started to run pretty lean.

I went to Modern Muscle in Oswego, IL to get it tuned and thrown on the dyno. Great shop...strongly recommended. They said that the meter was reading 30% off of what was actually going through the sensor. Haha.



I'm happy with the numbers since there is a tiny amount that's actually done to it. I'll be going next time with 3.42s, headers, ory, a better tire, and a converter.

I took it to the track the next day and only could get a 13.42 out of it. Didn't want to move until it was way past the 60' mark thanks to 2.73s.

Good numbers, I'd be real happy with the gains! What was the trap speed at the track?

I'd also like to know what it trapped. Nice numbers and car man. Is this an '01/'02 car? If not, you'd see even more with the ls6 intake! I think that's about 400hp at the crank, not bad for an Ls1 with such light bolt ons.

Exactly what I was going to say. Stock cammed LS1 cars don't seem to drop off until right after 5500 anyways.

No headers? Daaaaayum. I'd be happy to make that with my longtubes and a tune.
