you may run a high 12. like tntramair said thats at the crank and your prolly around 330-340 max rwhp. did they send you some KY w/ your puchase also?
And a Full Bolt On car w/ stock 10 bolt you MITE see 370-380 rwhp w/ great tuning.
sory to bust your bubble
but anything that is a mid 12sec car an faster you prolly wont beat, but could stay w/

A full bolt on car isnt going to put down 360-370 rwhp. Thats getting into cammed car range. A full bolt on car will be around 340-350ish rwhp...... Anyways enjoy the car but before you buy more SLP "Stage Packages" read around you might be able to use your money better....

You should read around this forum before you started modding and purchasing things. You have fallen victim to SLP's ridiculous hp claims on their products. You should've just bought a lid and the loudmouth from SLP, then got a FTRA or SSRA and not gotten the rockers, MAF, handheld tuner or the bellows then the money you saved you could've put towards Pacesetter LT's and ORY.

Or if it's an A4, huge stall converter, big rear, high rpm launch, suspension work, and DR's once again.
Not saying thats what he has, but it could be done with those and bolt ons. I went 12.9 on street tires with 298 horsepower. Do you really think it takes 400 horse to run around 12.?

If you check his cardomain page, he has alot of suspension work done for that manual to hook better. Heck I only have 313rwhp and I'm close to 11s as well with stock suspension but it's an auto

hell my probe makes 164hp and probably like 120-130 at the wheels and that little bitch did 14s.
its not always power that makes you go fast, its how you plant thqt power to the ground.
slp is a huge rip off (50 bucksfor a 3inch x 3inch piece of hose)

Easy man, no one is out to get you. Everyone is just saying with thoses mods you could win against 50 percent of the races you encounter. Be prepared too have your *** handed to you every once and a while. And the big thing with your mods as with any other vendor besides SLP the power you gain is said as " gains up to". You know power to weight has alot to do with how fast your car is. Try some weight reduction or hell just throw in a cam!
