Great numbers man. I have two friends with Stage 3-'s and they both have trouble breaking into the 12's. They have automatics and I've heard that the slushbox in the Audi's are really detrimental to performance. I've driven their cars when they were stage 2 and with the stage 3, I really see little difference (maybe more laggy than stage 2 but with really the same power). I've also seen what a proper stage 3+ is capable of and trust me, they are fast.

Yeah, I currently hold the record for fastest stage 3 minus. Once i go full stage3 I'll be looking at a low-mid 11 as a full weight car. The car didnt hook too well, and you can really tell from the last video. All my wheels are spinning but i just didnt go anywhere.

out of curiosity, what is the difference between stage 3 minus and full stage 3?

Injectors, 4bar fuel pressure regulator, 85mm MAF housing, RS4 accordion hose, different sparkplugs, larger more efficient intercooler along with an ECU tune.
