Per the Dyno Sheet it looks like boost was about 12.5 PSI at peak power. And just running one tune on the car

Can't get this car outta my mind!
Need to tone it down for my purposes. Do stock parts come with? Any extra SC pulleys or smaller injectors?
Would the present cam work with the stock TQ converter?
PM me your phone# pls.
Thanks

Just PM'd my number.

I have the stock exhaust manifolds, pre-cats, cats, and H-pipe. Though I would recommend you look into C6 Z06/ZR1 exhaust manifolds and mid-pipes/cats before thinking about strangeling the car with the stock C5 system. And this would only be if you want a more OEM exhaust setup. Other than that those are the only stock parts I have left. Sorry no other SC pulleys or smaller injectors.

The present cam in currently running with a Yank 3200 Stall Converter and it feels real nice and snappy. I don't think you would want to run this with a stock converter.

I think it would be best for us to talk on the phone so I can help you work through what you want to do with the car.

Cheers!

Hello, have you run the car in any standing mile events? if so what was speed. thinking i want to do a 200mph car. thinking this one may be a little light on hp. any ideal what it would take to increase power by another 100 at the wheels? im no mechanic so not sure about those things.

Thanks,

kevin

I have been dealing with moving the last few weeks. I will answer some questions and give a current status on the car.

The 104 in the 1/8 mile was with the 627-ish tune. Never got a chance to do a full shake down with the 710 tune.

I never did any standing mile events. You need to team up with a good, experienced tuner if you want to build a 200 mph runner. To get another 100 rwhp...probably add nitrous and all the stuff it needs...more fuel, bottles etc. And then how long do you need it to last before the bottles run dry?

The car is still for sale, but here is the deal...originally I was really motivated to sell the car before I moved. But now I have already moved and brought the car with me. Currently working on building out the new garage. Once the garage is done (in about a month) and if the car is still not sold I will just keep her. So only entertaining serious offers at asking price right now otherwise in about 30 days she will just stay with me.

Thank you.

Sigh, was hoping to work with you while you were more motivated. I love this car except the A4. I realize it's a better set up for 1/4 mile but I love to row through the gears. It's truly a beast and a beauty. I'm still returning to this car over and over again. Theirs a silver one with similar mods I'm looking at too. Both A4.

Bumping this back up.. Garage was more or less done about a month ago and I've had a bunch of other stuff going on.

So now I am at a bit of a crossroads. Sell her or keep her and do other things. I have decided to put her back up, but not sure for how long.

Thanks.

How long has it been since the build? How many miles on build and how many passes at the track?
