heads/cam

im lookin at port&polishing my heads, gettin a cam, puttin in a 3.42 posi (i think 3.73's in an a4 would be too much) 1.6 roller rockers, gettin the msd iginiton box, and tuned for all that stuff....what kind of times do you think that i would turn?

as of right now my mods and times are as follows:

slp cai, pacsetter headers, borla catback, msd igniton coils and wires, and the rksport shift enhancement thing

and my times are 15.4 @ 89 in the 1/4 and 9.8 @ 71 in the 1/8

thanks

its impossible to say with any certainty seeing as that we have no idea what type of cam you are wanting to get... the more aggressive the better the times.. and there arent too many people that are running aftermarket cams to compare to anyway

high 14's to low 14's depending on what cam you get. its possible to get in the high 13's. what you list is just a dream though, you have to give more specifics and then actually carry through... thats the only way you'll get an accurate estimate of what your setup will produce.

cam is my next mod. Im hoping for mid to high 14's with it.

I dont know... havent been to a track. Based on other peoples setups and their times, I would think mid to low 15's given good conditions and if I really know how to drive or not. Tires are in poor shape... so I dunno.
