Cold Air Intakes does work.......

983 Views 9 Replies 7 Participants Last post by  In A Dream
just came home from the tracks and i was very pleased with the results. my best originally was a 14.59 @ 96.01 mph, and that was on a cold nite 70-75 degrees. tonight after the addition of the CAI, i went a 14.50 @ 98 mph, and tonight was very hot and humid. my times went like this:
reaction time- .522
60 ft- 2.367
1/8 mile time- 9.423
1/8 mile mph- 78.28
1/4 mile time- 14.508
1/4 mile mph- 98.12
so if tonight was a little colder and less humid, i am sure my times would have been better. this was on the stock 15's. i am excited to install my downpipe and run with the 1.3 bar program, i am sure with that set-up i can hit close to 100 mph and hit low 14's. with drag radials, i think high 13's are reachable....what do you think?

uummm........i have no MAF....hehe. since i am running a HKS BOV, i unplugged my MAF. when doing the intake, i decided to just take out the entire MAF housing, to get a "strait through" intake flow. its a good thing that the service manager and i are good friends.

Nice work man. Do you have an AWW engine or an AWD? I bet you can get a 14.3 if you cut that 60' time a little.
The dealer I got my car from in MA is cool as $hit...the salesman told me about chipping, and the service guys have a race-prepped Scirocco and they all drive modded Audis. Too bad I live in VA now...

thanks man. yeah im trying to break that 14.5...i'm getting a lil better on the launch, but i still need some practice. oh well, hopefully next week the air will be a lil cooler.

try plugging the maf back in and put the hks (if possilbe) in dv mode. you SHOULD be able to hear the bov still since you have cai, and tell us your times with that set up. btw, great run! http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif
