Default First time on dyno

323.6 RWHP 343.4 RWTQ 02 T/A vert,A4,3.42,FRA/K&N.SLP Lid,descreened,SLP LM,KBDD,bilsteins,14,000 miles.

I was very happy with my dyno #s.There was an 02 SS in there that dynoed at 327 RWHP w/headers just before me.

There was like four old school mustang guys in there for dyno day,they watched the stock T/A put down 323.6 RWHP on a stock motor and they were like ,looked at the T/A with respect and were very friendly.

The guy who performed the dyno evaluation told everyone there...this is a very nice car...these are nice #s.He then looks at his buddy with an 03 Mach1 and says..this car will beat you.

Really nice numbers for a auto. Got a strong one there. Mach1 are fast to. MM&FF and 5.0 and Super Fords both got et's between 13.2-13.1 stock so it all depends on driver if you raced one.

Those are big numbers for an A4. You should be happy with them for your mods.

Your car WILL beat a Mach 1. I've seen many of them at the track and the fasted ET I saw was a 13.2. That particular Mach 1 had slicks, a gear swap, and a few other goodies. They mainly run high 13's. They only make like 275-285rwhp.

Thanks for the compliments everyone.I was suprised when he looked at his buddy with an 03 Mach1 parked out front and said i would beat him.

It sounds like Unit213 agrees with the performance shop owner.

Where do i go from here...stall...pulleys...may be logical.If i did pulleys do you think i could dyno at or above 330RWHP?

If you did an ASP pulley, you will more than likely dyno at or above 330RWHP, but I would do a stall converter. Stall converter will actually lower your HP reading on a dyno, but the performance increase is huge . Go with an ASP pulley, upgrade to a nice Stall converter (VIG,YANK, etc..) then you will think your car was just born again . Have fun.......
