Transmission NEW. Motor is running fine. Compression? I dont know where I could test that.
Xtreme HorsePower told me that seems just about right for a H/C A4 car. This was also Unlocked and SAE Corrected. But something is DEF. wrong.

i dunno why people get so caught up in dyno numbers....how does the car feel on the road? any faster? have you taken it to the track? was the car tuned for the shot your running? I know alot of people leave the tune conservative because of the spray...

Theres no way my exhaust is taking much from the dyno. And yes it feels faster, and no I haven't taken it to the track. I just dont understand, there are cam only A4 cars putting down more than me.

I would not be happy with those gains unlocked or not but your baseline numbers are not common.
Generally you should have more torque than hp with the stock cam. I would either run it at the track or take it to a dynojet.
Don't worry too much until you do either of those things.

Stock i've ran 12.2@ 110mph. I sure hope I gain more than .4/4mph out of something that cost over 2 grand. I still think there maybe something wrong.
Can a fuel pump be the culprit?

The cam isnt the issue its those GARBAGE *** Patriot heads.
I do NOT care how many people love them. ive seen car gain next to NOTHING for putting them on.
Your car can also use a U/D pulley and maybe a 90/90 set up.
Being thats it is an auto, your just not going to be a dyno queen, I bet the car will still run well at the track.
