You should be damn close if not in the twelves already. A LS6 intake, UD pulley and a Drag Radial are some simple things your missing that would do well for you. Whenever you have the time a converter is highly recommended for A4 cars.
Gettign rid of the flowmaster and going with the new exhaust is going to help ya out.
Biggest thing is getting seat time at the track every once in a while. Fast cars are useless without good drivers.

Vigilante makes a nice converter but you should keep the end goal of the car in mind when picking it out or you'll be unhappy in the end.
Wait for a dyno tune until you are ready for it. If you get a dyno tune after headers but do a cam later your wasting money. Just plan out what you want out of your car and stick to it.

I think after the headers you will be pretty close....but my suggestion would be a cutout, LS6 intake, some Drag Radials, and possibly a mail order tune and you should definitely be there...
