Default MTI X1+A4+STOCK HEADS= 70 rwhp gain!!

yup thats right guys.. 02 Z28 A4 W/O pulley and crappy 2.73!! put down 393/345 to the wheels. the torque is low ill have to double check when i get back.

the base line was 322/333 with just slp lid, ported TB, pacesetter longtubes, ory, and magnaflow catback and 2.73.. only additions were the X1 and vig 3200 and tranny cooler.


hopefully zach@MTI can post the graph!!

different people dyno cars differently. For example, my car did 372/367tq at a shop in dallas. Took it to TSP and it tuned out to 373/334 but it seems like jason told me he tried to take it high enough for the converter to not flash to get as flat a curve as possible. I might be messing that up but anyways. Congrats on the good numbers.

You prob wont see decent peak TQ #'s since the unless they locked the converter its just not going to happen.

Your "before" numbers seem strong and the afters are def gaining good, that car with a good tire, good air should be in the 11's

You need a good set of 3.73 gears. That will help bigtime/ Might lose alittle on the dyno numbers for it! But its better for you!!

While that may be the case...every dyno is gonna measure differently....no 2 dynos will read the same, especially considering the weather changes from dallas to here in Lubbock.
