pretty good times for just a convertor. that should be mid to low 13's in the 1/4 mile. the headers are a great next mod, definetly go with long tubes. what gear are you going with?

Sounds like a good choice. Have you checked out the ebay headers? Also my buddy runs a stock 6spd rear 3.42 in his a4 it works pretty good and has held up good too. His car went some 7.80s i think with full boltons setup this way.
