Took the day off to play with my car I started the day off by getting my car dyno tuned by Ryan (Cunningham Motorsports) and am very happy with the results. Then I headed over to the tire shop to have my new Weld Racing BC-19 wheels installed. Here are a couple pictures of the wheels. More pictures once I wash the car (darn rain).

The car has a SLP lid, K&N filter, SLP MAF, smooth bellow, BBK 85mm throttle body, and flowmaster muffler (which they said was actually holding it back a bit). You could tell right away, and it shifts so much better.
I had a baseline of 312 horsepower at the rear wheels, and left with 325 horsepower. Though the numbers seem kind of small, the car runs a lot quicker & smoother.

It's not about the peak numbers anyways, it's about what's under the curve. Sounds like a great day though! Now start saving for that cam and headers for another 50 rwhp!

wow, you spent some money today. i will assume you have an A4 based on your numbers. those are about on par for those mods. they do say that the flowmaster is a bit restricting on the LS motors.
ConElite, how is that a factory freak? the m6 cars tend to start off with more power than the a4.

Simply bc its an stock '00 LS1. It does not have the benefits of LS6 manifold and No Smog pump.
Maybe I talked to soon. Didnt mean to offend anyone.

i trap at 107.9 and dyno at 328hp, yet i have the ls6 intake and 5.3L cam. gil traps at 108 with similar mods (considering m6 vs a4).
Krazy4, yours was a factory freak, and an M6 which tends to have higher numbers anyway, same as luke. now the torque, that could vary, but i still say its offset on average.
