You also have to look at tuning. Just goin off your sig, I assume you havent had the car tuned with HP Tuners or LS1 edit, or anything else. With the freeflowing exhaust you have now, your tune is gonna be slightly off, and just getting the car retuned will pick you up a few ponies depending on how far off the tune is. Even bone stock cars can benefit from a tune, so dont think that b/c you dont have any serious mods, your car cant benefit from being tuned.
Hmm no its not tuned and yes! it was a mustang dyno. When they first dynoed it they only got 281 to the wheels.. i knew that was wrong so they did it again and got 336..

You wanna play dyno drags with a stock A4? You will lose every time. Sorry. Autos play hard on the road and at the track.
Get some track time in before you criticise the car and/or tune. I made 230rwkw (308rwhp) stock with tune and exhaust and ran 12.6@112. Added a Fuddle converter and ran 12.2@112. Lost power on the dyno but no losses, only gains, at the track.
See what I am saying?

id say you have a good base line to start with.
funny someone brings up hp is for ricer talk. i saw a 600whp turbo civic(a friend of mine) run a magna charged C5 450rwhp, both cars on tires. civic weighed 2500lbs. who won? the vette by a hundreth of a sec. it was a damn good race one of the best improt vs muscle at the track that night. so yeah dyno numbers arent everything.

gte it tuned if you want dyno numbers, get a tourque converter to have better track times....i know a local guy that ran an 11.3 with boltons, LOTS of suspension parts and a huge stall...only 333rwhp, hard to belive right?
