Default new mods

so i today i just aquired some new mods. I bought a TCI street fighter 3500 stall, 373 gears and some little things. all paid for and installed for 400 dollars. Tell me thats not a good deal. Right now i have a 99 a4 Z28. my mods are 2.5 inch dumped exhaust with an X-pipe, subframe connectors, relocation brackets, lower control arms, panhard bar, free mods, survo, and drag radials. Out of curiosity what do you think i could get out of my car with the converter and gears. Before the relocation brackets and LCA i ran a best 13.56 at a 104 mph.

A damn good deal!

You should see a huge gain adding a 3500 stall & 3.73s, assuming you can get traction with your current drag radials. I'd expect at least .7 off with traction, maybe more.
