Ran The Beast Today...
I was hoping for a little better time but in general I'm still happy. The track isn't all that great, traction was a major problem.
I ran with traction control on, suspension in comfort mode and transmission in S.
The only two mod's I have are drop in K&N filters and ASP pulley.

No longer stock '06 E55, A3 3.2 Quattro, LRD4 HSE, R107 280SL
Have to say pretty disappointed with that. 116.8 trap for the biggest pulley out there sounds kinda low no ?
Some stock cars run very close to that??? Mbe the ASP pulley is not worthwhile without an ECU tune...
And what the heck was next to you ?????!

All the power in the world means nothing if you don't have traction. The car I ran was a old Dodge Dart (Pro street)
The pulley definitely makes more power than the stock one. If I had slicks I know I could get it in the high 11's.
As I said this track sucks... Three cars in my lane lost control and only one could drive away

116 trap speed is good depending on your competition.
Where did you run?
elevation?
any other cars that were stock and you can provide times and trap speed?
FOR EXAMPLE:
AT THE FONTANA EVENT: 116 trap speed would of beat the M5, M6 and K2 with a faulty ECU programming.
Let's not jump into conclusion about this ETA and Trap until we see how other cars on that day, under the same conditions ran.
==============================
Any pulley that is bigger than stock will make power. Does not matter if its called Renn, Kleemann, ASP, EVO. Adding a Kompressor Pulley alone will make more power there is NO depute.

Very impressive run considering you had a 2.06 60-foot
A low 1.90 60-footer and you'll be in the 11's.Drag radials will make your day as long as the weather is ideal
