Happy dyno for sure but as long as the tune is good that's all that matters dyno's are just tools. Aslong as the ran runs good and your happy then congrats

As others have said, probably a very happy dyno or thetuner messing with the calibration, but as long as it runs strong who cares? Take it to the track and see whats what

Doubt its an LS6 since its a 2000 Car and they didnt have the LS6 yet. Sounds very high, but who freakin knows

exactly.

OP, go run a cam only stalled auto (which should around your "power level") and see how fast he runs away from you

It's a shame that shops mislead customers like this.

I am very curious also. Bring her on down and I will give you a couple runs and if it can do what it says, no charge for the runs

Like most have said, a GOOD bolt on A4 car will make maybe 335-350 RWHP on a good cool day. Of course the track will show it if the numbers are true. The base numbers look pretty close to what they should be give or take.

I did a 2001 TA A4 with a Yank 3600 and made 335/355. With a proper suspension plus the converter she ran a 11.97 at 112-113. So that should give ya something to shoot for.

I've had my car at pro tech dyno. Just did 3 pulls no tuning at all the only diff in my sig of mods is I had tds dumped before the axle when I did this. Ok with that said I put down 430/423. I was happy as a pig in mud. Now last january I took my car to get dyno tuned by mike norris in indy. Base numbers were like 360/350 yes I dissapointed it was a dynojet dyno...all and all I got last numbers 405/395. So id take it to the track or another dyno and don't have high exspectaions like I did hahaha

Hey Mike Thanks for the offer.

I'll take it to US41 here soon and see what happens.

I'm happy with it. Car feels good the faster you go the harder it pulls.

Chris cruise by one day after work and we'll take it for a spin.

Thanks for the comments.

Here's some eye candy for ya

The intake was switched out for a 2001 cause of the egr hole on the top.

The FLP long tube headers came with a y pipe.

On a DJ you'd be around 325-330 with the stall locked. A stock A4 on a DJ will typically be in the low 290's. Tune, headers and intake will add up to 50 rwhp on a stock stall. Higher aftermarket stalls will not dyno as high as stock which is why the operator will lock it up for the pull in 3rd gear.
Mine did 308rwhp bone stock on a mustang dyno. 02 a4 car. So is a mine a freak or are you in tune with the rest of us that think dyno numbers dont mean ****?

Yes. It is.

Hard to tune with a granatelli.
Never heard of any hp gains from it.
Expensive and the one came stock is just as good.
Its just one of those parts like a hpp3, try it and sell it.

of course this is just my .02 cents worth

nice lookin car.

my father swapped a cammed lt1 into his old truck and had ron dynotune it. i believe that dyno is supposed to be showing an estimate of crank hp. i thought they had to do some kind of conversion to give him a rwhp number. it has been awhile, i could be wrong and tried not to listen to much about...what was it called again...an lt1.

i have a painfully stock lid/flowmaster only 99 m6 ta sitting in my garage that likes to eat up 370hp cars, come on down
