PP 5.3/TSP228R dyno #'s I just had the heads and cam installed and dyno'd. The car pulls so much harder now. Thanks Patriot for the great heads and TSP for a great cam. Also a big thanks to Rocky Varacola for the install and exceptional care done at http://fbodymotorsports.com/ on my car. My mods are in the sign and the graph posted below.

Yeah, that's some pretty good numbers for an A4, post up the corrected #'s if you can get them. couple of ?'s for you
1. was that thru an exhaust or cutouts?
2. Do you have an ASP pulley?
Thanks and congrats on the combo.

Couple pointers...
Get SAE numbers and tell him to put the smoothing back in the graph. That has to be the worst example of trying too hard for peak #'s that I have ever seen. I'm sure the number will still be over 400 which is really good for an A4.

Yes it was through a cutout that dumped before the axle. No cats. And yes an asp pulley too. The car picked up around 15 hp after opening the cutout. I guess it's time for a new exhaust. Maybe duals. Thanks for the nice words and I will see if I can't get that fixed.

His heads aren't milled, he's running around 10.8:1 through the use of the 5.3's smaller combustion chamber size. I know I saw the graph this weekend but still looks great for an A4 car, I can't wait to get mine dyno'd now.

How is the idle?
Were your heads milled any?

Looks good and very close to mine. I have since had better pulls with better tuning. But you get the gist of it. I average 406RWHP and 405 RWTQ in my a4.

Nice and your setup looks just like mine except for the convertor. I also need to mention a big thanks to Rocky Varacola at http://fbodymotorsports.com/ for the great install and exceptional care for my car! He is a very smart guy when it comes to F-bodys and a great person to talk to about them.
