Lol, if you dont allready autocross, go into it with a stock car. the more you have on your car, the higher of a class u run in. go in a stock car, talk to the people there, and have someone weatherd sit in your passenger seat and tell u how to drive.

if ur allready a weatherd autocross racer, good luck. swaybars, good tires (not slicks), suspension and u should be set. and maby some drilled rotors, the stock A4 rotors warp easliy

 

i had hsport sway bars and coilovers and droped the **** out of it and also ran dunlop competition tires. car sticks to the ground very nicelly

 

From what i've read the a4 has problems getting the front end to stick (ie pushing)? I was thinking full coil overs and leaving the front bar stock and putting a bigger rear bar, This should help to rotate the rear around.

And probably before I get the coil overs I would put an aftermarket rear sway bar on.
Why not true slicks? I have a set of goodyear cantilouver(sp?) slicks for 7in rims that are 9in wide that I WAS going to use on my 73 v8 914, but I went with 10.5's and 9.5'son 9's and 10's instead (true slicks).
I was thinking that the quattro management probably worked better with a little bit of slipage, but im just curious. How about some hoosier DOT r's? still to sticky? because those are the "street" tires, I have like 5 sets of those (jesus.. i gotta use some of those..) and some victoracers, and I think I have a pair of yoks AO32r's that I want to use up..

Im an avid autoxer.. 4 years under my belt (got my license, next day went autoxing!!).
I also have a couple of track days under my belt..

I just have NO experience with setting up awd cars.. Heck I dont even have an a4 yet.. im still waiting to sell my stock 944 turbo...

Thanks

Jeff, what was your camber at? PSI?

 

lower the ride with coilovers and increase the wheel base ( broader tyres/low profilewith wheel spacers )

 

o i dont know about the camber and psi was like 35 iicr. it was almost a year ago since i did the set up.
the h-sport was the best handeling mod imo. made the front end bite and turning was greatly improved. i had both front and rear sways. the back was much larger and stiffer

 

Alright, that confirms my thoughts..

BTW, I was checking out your dyno graphs and DAMN your tuning gets rich over 5k rpms!! Did you get a chance to fix that? Is that custom tuning, or by whom? What turbo, psi? I would venture to bet you could get 25-50 more hp with proper tuning, because thats WAAAY off..

 

yes thats becuase that dyno i had a broken maf. so i was just running off the map sensor. and at that air vollume it cant calculate fast enough so it just dumped teh fuel in. i got a new maf and it leaned way out. then i took some fuel out and it got much better. but i didnt ever go back and re dyno it. yes custom tuning. t3t4 turbo 21-40psi. ya it was a shitty tune that dya

 

Can you send me specs on the t3/t4 via pm? Im planning on going that route.

40psi? damn...

What did you use to check the a/f ratio when not on the dyno? LM1unit? Thats what we use...


Ahhh thread hyjack sorry...
PM me Jeff, It would help me alot!
Thanks

 

that stasis center diff actually looks pretty nice, i know what i want for my B-day.
