quarter mile time for stock lt1

hey guys this is my first a4 car, im not really sure what to expect at the drags. its pretty much stock aside from 3.73 gears and a k/n. what do you think is a respectable time on street tires? thanks

best i've seen with a K&N is 13.95 and he had 2.73's, not 3.73's... I'd say you might go 13.90-14.20...cold weather helps a lot.

mine went 13.7 @ 101 with just cold air induction and 2.73 gears at a sea level track, but as others have said here, long as you're under 14.4 your in good shape

When mine was bone stock it went 14.43@98 I was expecting 13`s like everyone says they get.I was kinda pissed when I got the time slip
I later realized just a few mods and you can hit 12`s(best 12.52@109 with -1500 DA)
3000 vig stall,et streets,mac headers,cutout,cai and 373 gears

I think with what you have depending on the DA anything tha starts with 13 would be great

Depending on your R/T and your shifting you should be able to pull close to 14 flat all day. Getting a number from us gives you something to base off of but all of the variables at the track will determine everything.

low 14s, maybe a high 13 if the weather is perfect.
