uhm, dude, I dunno, that to me sounds really low. Your times do match your mods tho? Do you have a graph?

I watched several stock vettes pull 305-312 with just catbacks/cold airs on a mustang dyno the other weekend for what its worth.
Same engine....adding 15% for drivetrain loss that would put them 345-355 right about on I figured.
Uncorking these things seems to be the money move and you have longtubes already.
I agree w/v8maro, you seem pretty low unfortunately.

could the person have entered the wrong weight and messed up his #'s by 5-10hp? Its alot easier to confuse a mustang dyno as im sure you know...his mph looks a bit low for his mods i will say that.

Mustang dynos are strange, from what I have seen their numbers can vary greatly depending on how they are calibrated. I also do not know much about A4 cars but I would think that a loose verter could suck up a little power..?

Since those are the only mods you have, your times aren't that bad. You could use a LS6 intake and a cam, you'd probably be pretty close to 11's with that.
Those bolt on guys running 11's have stripped cars. Don't expect to duplicate their numbers unless you get the weight down.
