244.72 rwhp and 277.52 rwtq



hp seems a little lower than i wanted but where did all that torque come from?

remember this car is an auto with 2.73 gears

lt1's are naturally torquey engines

Keep in mind that it was a very hot and muggy day down there in your area.

Not bad for a stock motor. Now I'm curious of what mine would throw down.

Nice numbers, they look right to me. I've owned several A4 LT1 cars and they always dynoed 230-235 rwhp and 270-280 rwtq SAE corrected, when stock. If you set your correction to SAE then your car would probably be in the mid to high 230's.

My cars all ran low 14's at 97-98 mph, so I don't believe they were down on power. From what I've read the M6 cars always dyno a bit higher on a chassis dyno.
