Default Took my automatic to the track

I have had this car (91 tsi FWD auto) for over a year now and finaly desided to take it to the track.
Its my girlfriends daily driver.
Car is full weight with a/c , sunroof and all.
mods are:
14b, 2.5in turbo back, MBC at 16lbs and a K&N. That all.
Made three passes with a best of 13.8 @ 99 mph.
not to bad for a near stock automatic.

Not bad, indeed. I see why you wanted the rx7 pump, sorry for doubting you. It should give you some breathing room without putting the hurt on the stock fpr or whining like a caged dog. Grab some evo8 injectors and an SAFC and it's ready for a 12.9.

People put down the automatic but i believe that is the main reason for the times. It shifts perfect every run. You cannot out shift a automatic. This car would go into the 12`s so easily.
