Car is full bolt on minus an underdrive pulley. Got the car when i was 17 from a guy in SC who just wanted to get rid of the car. We straight up traded my 98 stang gt for this (what a steal). Car had 38k on it, now it has about 43k. Was also an A4 when i got it but I reallly wanted a 6spd so back in september i did the swap in my garage and its now got a t56. Another reason for the swap was i shattered the converter once and it started bouncing off the limiter on the 2-3 shift so i said screw the 60e. As an A4 with just headers and a crappy flowmaster it put down 320whp and 333tq. Now its full bolt on but i havent dyno'd it. Went 13.0 at 108 bouncing of the limiter last year as an A4 also. woulda easy been a 12.7 if the trans was solid, i was so pissed haha. heres a vid of that run

Thanks guys. But yeah i couldnt believe it when he said he just wanted my stang. Car was on its 2nd motor and 3rd trans with 3rd gear going again. I didnt care cus the car was under warranty so i beat the hell out of it. I drove down there the next weekend to trade haha. The TA looked like shit though, needed major cleaning and the rearend was pretty done but i didnt care at all, I never thought id get an ls1 so young and i'd be an idiot to pass up a platform like this.

 

and yuuupp another fuckin F-Body haha. I was browing this section and was happy to see so many haha

 

Oh by the way heres a few pics of the stang i had. (hope you guys dont mind all the pics)

320whp is rather solid for an A4 car. Get that bitch on the dyno with the T56 and bolt ons and see what it does.

 

Agree with Kirk on that being a steal, even if the TA needed some love. Solid move.

 

Yeah i was really happy with those numbers for what i had. It put 29x down on the first run(went 13.1 with those numbers) then i just had the a/f fixed and had the factory tune for an 02 put in and she put down those numbers the very next pull. I didnt get a full tune cus the guy hooked me up, $80 for 3 pulls a/f correction, and while i was there he said he'll reflash it with the 02 tune.

 

Im waiting to put her on the dyno cus im putting in a cam once summer hits. Was supposed to do the swap over spring break next week but i got fucked on my tax return

More have to give you a good rep score. Don't worry, you shouldn't have any issue, unless you start acting like a douche.
