is it built for drag? street? autox? road racing? where does the power come in? what do you want your motor to do in regards to the previous questions? it sounds like you're going to be dragging, the car should be reasonably fast, mid 13's sound right....2025 in some places is the going rate of b series....but in my opinion, turbo will be the best way to go unless you're going for NA

will more likely be street. closer to drag. suspension wise probably just some tokicos and good coilovers. i will run steelies with slick at the track.

knowing what i know thats about the max hp you can pump out of an a6 running pump gas and no induction. If thats what you want go for it, or build a turbo beast or get a b that'll make upper 200s running pump gas.

you could probably run 12s i think Wil from exospeeed had his hf rex run 12s with an NA built a6 running pump gas

check out http://www.exospeed.com or IM ExospeedAMcrx(wil)
he's a great guy to talk with and they have a lot to offer the true D16 fans out there. and their prices are better (.. I think)
