You have all the exact same mods as me but I have an M6 and 4:10s. I made 400hp even and 374tq. With your A4, you may make a little bit less. BTW, with my cutout open I made 7 more hp than through the magnaflow.

Rob....I told you, gotta run stuff that I do that's to big to fit in your motor haha. Like when you run cams that have the same lift/duration as that of the big blocks!

How can you guys make any judgement on this? You do not even know the LSA/ICL of the cam.

With the size alone you should, but tuning has a lot to do with it.

I spec a smaller cam that put 404rwhp 385 trq on a 4000 stall, 9inch A4, cam only + bolt ons, so yeah it should make over that amount (400) properly setup.

You should be making another 10>15rwhp with that cam, unless the only bolt ons you have are headers and exhaust.

i have like your exact setup cept my cam is bigger (233/239 from TSP), but i also have stock intake and throttle body, and i have a loud mouth one witch is pretty free flowing but a cutout might make a few more ponies... Id say 385 i made 374 in 75 degrees, But also it depends on whether its 40 degrees outside... However dont worry about numbers.... i went a 12.04 and my car still shortshifts so its a very high 11 sec car. Put it this way would u rather make 400 rwhp and run low 12's or 385 and run high 11's, dont worry so much about the dyno number.
