not trying to claim ignorance, but I think the dip at the beginning is the converter locking.... but it is whatever is stock in the A4 and nothing special was done... just hooked it up and went, so I do not know if the verter was locked or unlocked actually...

Generally speaking, one should use (tech2,efilive pro) to lock the transmission in 3rd gear, then unlock the verter, then nail it.
That will give you what you will see on a launch.
Then if you can lock the verter and run it again.
Locked = more hp, less torque
unlocked = less hp, more torque
Most likely you will spend most of the time going down the 1/4 mile unlocked since at wot it usually unlocks unless someone has reprogrammed your car to shift locked up top. Which might be harsh on the trans?

they did it in third gear where the ratio is 1:1, so it is correct
