How to drop into the 7's on the 1/8th. I'm wanting to drop my car into the 7's on a bolt on motor if possible without spray
My car is a 01 ws6 a4
180,000 miles
stock suspensin
m/t's drag radials
lid
longtubes with offroad y and tuned
It cut's a 8.34 right now on motor. Is there anyway to drop it down in the 7's. I am guessing a stall is gonna be my only option. I have a tnt wet kit on my car iwht 100 shot right now but I would like to be able to hit 7's on motor first before i spray it.

I see you are in AL what track do you go to? A 100 shot on a stock stall A4 car should easily drop you 3-4 tenths. Are you going to spray it off the line? If you already have the nitrous use it check the nitrous section for any questions you may have. I'm in AL too btw I go to Huntsville dragway.

if you go 100ish shot, i had stock stall and 3.23's and it allowed me to do consitant 1.8 60's with the crappy tiny street tires...
100-150 shot, 3600 stall, mickey t d/r's and some long tubes and go deep deep 7's....

how about you play with your launch and/or suspension. a 2.00 60' is **** at your power level and with MT's on back. play with tire pressure, get a panhard and lca's. then start paying big money for a stall etc etc.

^ this is prob the best advice on here.. with this advice you could be able to cut 1.8X 60 ft times and maybe break that 7.99 barrier

what direction should I be looking, the car does feel a little slugish out of the hole..even if i could run a 7.99 on motor it would be awesome, just haven't seen to many headers and lid only cars do that.

what psi do you have the tires at? removed the front sway bar? what kind of burnout are you doing? are you going around the water box and backing into it?
stall will be awesome but you can spray your way to a better 60 foot till you get one imo... after you get the 60 foot down below 2.0 on motor...

Not sure on psi to be honest, front sway bar is still in and backing up pulling forward spinning them over till they smoke a tad then rolling out, the car does not spin what so ever.
