My car is a street car mostly, IF I can get the 9 sec slip then I will make the decision to turn it into a track car only. I mostly just want the 9 sec bragging rights. If the track becomes a regular thing, the cage will go in for sure.

What kind of times did you get out of your setup?

What kind of times did you get out of your setup?at the 850~870 rwhp level I went through about $3000 in clutches in a year. Never got one to make a pass. I gave up after that and put a TH400 and stock longblock,cam only after that.
There are a few more options out now though. I think i would try the RAM twin disc. Or I would fab a cable setup.
at 600~620 it went 10.0 at 138

sit in traffic for an hour or so with a stiff clutch and then remember that! lol
but they both have their ups and downs.

easy, easy, easy, us autos might have a hard time sticking with even the less modded M6 guys but guess what, my LS1 is never boring and i am quite sure will never be boring, unless i blow it up, knowck on wood, and plus, me A4 hasnt lost to an M6 from a dig yet, lol, prolly cuz i havent found none with enough skill and power to beat me

I just bought my first 6 speed LS1, I had an A4 before this one. I agree that its more fun in an M6 car, but with Chicago traffic I find myself switching to the winter beater sometimes just to get a break. When I had the A4 you couldnt get me out of that thing. So they both kinda have their ups and downs.
