Default Could this be a tuning poblem or operator error?

I have the basic bolt on's on my A4 z28, hooker lt's, y-pipes, shift kit/deep pan and catback. SLP flowpac, and quad tip exhaust system. I went to the track at e'town on a pretty decent day back in october (roughly 70) and the best I did was 13.85 at 105 mph with street tires (potenza (can't remember off the top of my head which styling). It sounds like reading other car forums that I should have got some better times. Anyone lend some help?

wow yea.. i would think atleast under 13.5 even on street tires? what was ur 60ft? if it was a 2.0 or less im going to wonder about those times.. however if u had like a 2.30 or something then that would make sense to only go 13.85 but ur mph still seems low either way.

im thinking depeding on what quad tip system ur using.. u might want to put an electric cutout on that y pipe, prolly good for a lil power and mph. i would definetly say get some kind of stall converter, atleast a 2800, and a 373 gear, a dyno tune woudln't hurt and some m/t drag radials or m/t et streets u can get both and some stock 16x8 to mount them on..

mph sounds fine...id say operator error lol but then again there are alot of thing you left out...year of car because of ls6 intake and gearing...my 98 with ls1 intake and 2.73 gears ran 13.3's@105 with a borla catback, shift kit, and slp lid, so tell the rest of the combo so we can make an accurate judgement, but hte mph doesnt match the et if thats what your asking.
