Nothing wrong with that! Looks like a great kit. Have fun. Hint, The 150 pills are the most fun

Congratulations!

yeah, its suppose to have 4 jets... 75, 100, 125, and 150.. the 100 and 125 stainless steel jets are on back order so matt at HSW is going to send me some other ones. so its more leaning on the 150... but not sure, might want to just do the 75 to get a feel for it. but i'm so stoked...

i did the 75 my first time, skipped the 100 and keep the 150's in till I sold the truck. Stock 5.3 loved the 150. 4l60e did not

The rear end will be fine as long as you don't nitrous launch it on the juice with DR's or slicks.

Thats true... BUT.. Your car is an A4 and his is a 6 speed. You didn't "nitrous launch" it though I didnt think.. The A4's are a lil more forgiving on the rears.. lol And yes you are right, every one is a lil different.

I'm the 6 speed drivetrain destroyer though... hehe
