Definantly.

I don't know how many of you have V-6 fbods. . .but their "hot spot" is 35. I've pulled a LT1 Vette and a LS1 Trans-Am with my V-6 from a 35 roll. Of coarse I quit before they caught up.

I like to roll onto mine at about 40-45. It hits pretty hard there. Also, itll be different for a M6 than an A4.

You also have a cam and quite abit of other mods, I was speaking of a stock or bolt-on car.

Thats fine. I do have a cam and some bolt-ons but it was never confirmed how modded his car was or wasnt so I was just giving another point of view.

20-30mph will usually get you a nice 2-1 downshift and then again in the 45mph zone is a good one too
