New Times...........but low MPH?
 
Earlier this year I was running right at 13.9@100mph. After a few more visits to the track and some LT1 Edit tuning changes, I was able to run these numbers a couple weeks ago........

60ft 1/4 mph
2.398 15.164 100.05
2.259 13.747 101.98
2.107 13.566 101.40 changed tune
2.098 13.542 101.66 changed tune again
2.137 13.523 101.86

Mods list:
1995 Z28 A4 3.23 88,000miles
MAC exhaust, MAC headers, AS&M CAI, Transgo Shift kit, BMR subframe connectors, LT1 Edit, Yoko AVS ES100 tires, pulleys

The 1-2 shift is still very strong but the 2-3 is getting pretty soft. I can't seem to get to 102mph for some reason. I would think for my times I should be around 103-104 maybe?? I am very happy with the times but I wish the mph were a bit higher.

i guess i'm in the exact opposite situation as u. I had a 13.5 in the quarter mile but i trapped at 106. The time should be about 2 tenths quicker but its all about how you start off. Also, where in chicago are you from and where do you hang out.

those mph's are a wee bit off for your mod's and i mean "wee" not much.. your a a4 so your mph is gonna be a lil low..your et is decent though..

I live in Willow Springs and work in Schaumburg. Work and school full time kinda limit my hanging out time. I was at Union Grove a lot over the summer.

I plan on 3.73s next year and 1.6 RRs so that should help me out a bit, if my trans doesn't die before then.

i wouldn't worry about it too much, A4's aren't good for high mph.

Yeah the automatic and the weight of the car are the major factors. The motor is about right. For instance we just put a 94 T/A together for my freind, it has a 355 with a nice bottom end (built to use nitrous later) 11.5:1 comp ported LT1 heads and a nitrous specific cam in the 230/236 range. N/A it ran down the track mid 12s @ 110 mph (700R4, 3.42 gears). My other freind was there with his standard LT1 (97 T/A) with boltons and a cam, he was hitting low 13s high 12s @ 109 mph. If you lined these two ars up out on the street from a float the 94 T/A walks the 97 pretty good.

The autos will trap pretty conservatively considering.
